The impact of additional federal funding cuts on our society is a topic of great concern. Can these cuts truly reduce the federal deficit? Are the Administration's efforts to transfer public functions from the federal government to the states feasible?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn this comprehensive volume, a distinguished group of economists, many of whom have held positions in Republican or Democratic administrations, delve into fundamental issues related to the design of domestic policy. They examine the consequences of recent policies on poverty, urban transportation systems, the availability of qualified teachers, the affordability and ongoing racial segregation of housing, and efforts to control pollution and enhance the environment. They provide insights into the likely outcomes of further funding cuts in each of these areas and propose innovative solutions to reduce the federal deficit.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis title is part of UC Press' Voices Revived program, which celebrates the University of California Press' commitment to identifying and nurturing the most brilliant minds and providing them with a platform to express their ideas, reach a wider audience, and have a meaningful impact.
