I agree with Jet, that this is another hopeless waste of time and money.
One example:
George H. Bush had this plan when he was President.
He would allow tax breaks, and incentives in what were called "Enterprise Zones."
In depressed areas, and areas with poverty, etc., these breaks were given.
In Parts of Los Angeles in black areas the plan started. Guess who came and started small businesses?
The Koreans.
And the blacks had the audacity to blame them for opening up small business, which were mostly retail. Good on the Koreans for the being industrious. They didn't live in these areas, but they did start something up.
The locals in the area didn't do anything, basically.
