You have a point about raising housing costs for everyone else, but I can appreciate the intent to preserve some degree of income diversity even in expensive neighborhoods. People who write about cities have often said that a city is most healthy when people of all walks of life are able to live in proximity with each other, and it's possible that without these assistance programs (as short-sighted as they may be), we'd see more cities turn into strictly playgrounds for the rich.
