Economic growth benefits the poor in Texas
Washington Post:
In coastal Texas, a community of black and Hispanic residents vs. oil refineries
As industry ensnares Corpus Christi’s minority Hillcrest neighborhood, homeowners are being offered several times the depressed value of their homes to move out. Can that offer serve as a model for a president who has vowed to slash the red tape of projects to prod development? Or will it stand as an uncommon example of progress on civil rights, housing and the environment?
This expansion affords the current homeowners the opportunity to obtain better homes further from the industrial area of their current neighborhood. I would say it is a win-win deal. I have seen other such tender offers used in the Houston area to allow the growth of commercial buildings. This is one reason the Texas economy is so dynamic and lifts all boats.
