I can see that. But that's not what I took away from that quote. Maybe I took it too far out of context.
Part of my problem is that this guy isn't the one in charge of HEW. Who's he to be talking about welfare or the victim mentality?
His job is to make certain that cities budget for services like public transportation so that people can get to the jobs they have. This is also the department that's supposed to make certain that local zoning laws don't violate federal laws -- like EPA regulations or anti-racism legislation. It's his job to apportion federal money to low income housing, too.
It's hard to work oneself out of a job, but I think that the best people will do it.
