Wondering where I should squat when I’m no longer able to pay rent.

I was supposedly ‘hired’ at an insurance company last Friday and told today not to come into the office because supposedly the boss is having a heated discussion with the agents.

So even when I have a jog I don’t have a job.

Maybe somewhere with plenty of space for a garden?

So let’s take in more illegals and refugees that we cannot support.

One can become homeless yet still not inject narcotics, become an alcoholic, or crap in the gutter.

Our “tent city” is behind the closed KMarts.

A long term family home turning into a rental is not a bad thing per se, because it still provides housing.
The long term decline of home ownership, with many people having to sell homes and move in with others after 8 years of 15% real unemployment, IS a problem.
And I’ll say 1/6 of men out of the workforce IS a real problem - and cause for homelessness.

Just like during the last economic crisis, homeless encampments are popping up all over the nation as poverty grows at a very alarming rate.

The Last Economic Crisis?

We have been in an economic crisis since 2007.

The MSM calls it a recovery, but what’s in a name? They claim that FDR was a great president.

Homeless camps are invisible during democrat administrations, this has been true since AT LEAST the Carter administration. The left’s lap dogs in media refuse to show anti war rallies, homeless camps, or unemployment lines while Dems are in power. You might get a small local paper discussing it, but it goes no higher.

Yet another thing the mainstream media isn’t reporting on and leaving to “alternative” media.

This is another clear indication that Trump is likely to win the election. There are no homeless people when Democrats are in the WH, but there are millions of homeless people when Republicans are in the WH. This is just setting the stage for the homeless that are going to be blamed on Trump and the GOP Congress.

Wrong. This will immediately become Trumps fault if he’s elected. If hitlary is elected, it’s a leftover problem from the Bush years.
