Abstract
Abstract This paper rejects the Utopian assumption that characterizes the American future as one of universal affluence. It is suggested that material abundance and leisure creates new forms of scarcity. Assuming therefore, that urban economic inequality will be both persistent and considerable, the author explores possible choices for future action, using a four sector model of economic distribution and a threefold urban system model. Caution in his analysis leads him to conclude that certain aspects of policy are really life-style analysis. Inequality analysis remains an unmet political priority.
