Passage Summary: A politician argues against urban renewal laws because they end up helping rich people move in while kicking out the poor people who lived there first.

Conclusion: Legislation providing tax incentives and zoning variances for urban renovation should not be commended.

Reasoning: The programs primarily benefit wealthy professionals and cause the displacement of the long-term residents they were intended to assist.

Analysis: This politician is judging a policy based on its results rather than its intentions. To justify this criticism, we need a principle that links the failure to help the intended group with a negative judgment of the policy itself. Look for a rule stating that a program is a failure if it harms the very people it was designed to protect, or that benefits to the wealthy do not justify costs to the poor.
