Moaning About Housing Costs

Excuse me, but I certainly don’t feel sorry for the Le family (“Little Hope for Homeless in House-Shy Affluent Area,” Aug. 8), who can’t afford a two-bedroom apartment in Westminster without a federal housing subsidy. If they can’t afford the apartment, how can they afford the designer jeans for Mrs. Le, the nice television, stereo system, video equipment, piano keyboard? Something is rotten in Rip-Off City.
