Good pointsFleeing from domestic abuse is a third category.
Vouchers only work as an emergent solution for overall housing unaffordability. It is more economically efficient to add to housing supply through zoning changes and development incentives rather than vouchers.
Another issue is that the Section 8 program, which tried to incorporate many of these ideas at inception, is now more of a landlord subsidy than it is a housing program. You can make an argument that it should be blown up and refunded entirely at the state and local level.
Now I know some small time Section 8 landlords-and they all are a good deal for everyone involved
