Fortified Milk

I am obliged to take issue with the recommendation of the Committee on Nutrition that all babies be fed iron fortified milk throughout the first year. I refer you to the Committee Report published in Pediatrics,1 in which a more reasonable policy is outlined. The Committee recommends and I quote directly, "The most effective way to prevent iron deficiency on a large scale is by an iron fortified dietary staple which can be begun by 6 weeks of age for infant consumption.

Abstract This paper isolates the causal impact of neighborhood environment on the credit outcomes of low-income borrowers by analyzing the participants of the Moving to Opportunity (MTO) experiment. MTO was a unique, large-scale experiment that offered families vouchers to move to better neighborhoods via randomized lottery. We find higher credit scores and use among those required to move to the lowest poverty areas as young children. For those who moved as adults, we find that better neighborhoods lead to a reduction of overdue debts and delinquencies, but only among those given unrestricted neighborhood choice.

Abstract Gentrification is no-longer, if it ever was, a small scale process of urban transformation. Gentrification globally is more often practised as large scale urban redevelopment. It is state-led or state-induced. The results are clear – the displacement and disenfranchisement of low income groups in favour of wealthier in-movers. So, why has gentrification come to dominate policy making worldwide and what can be done about it?
