Urge US Help to Eliminate Car Poverty in California
A UC study report urges sweeping government action to lift economically marginal Californians from poverty. Researchers Earl Raab and Hugh Folk propose extending social insurance, retraining programs, education, stronger housing laws, raising and broadening the minimum wage, and emphasis on rehabilitation to aid undereducated and minority groups amid rising unemployment and a 20 percent school dropout pool. The authors warn politics may block such steps.
