Wealth-based targeting also reaches white rural poor, a political plus

Evidence

The racial wealth gap means that my proposal will likely apply to the majority of black homeowners who live in racially diverse neighborhoods, as well as to the residents of some all-white neighborhoods in poorer rural areas. From my perspective, that makes the neighborhood-based subsidy a less than ideal solution, but it’s potentially the most politically and legally viable. — Dorothy A. Brown, Getting to Reparations, 1299
