And who has been President for the second straight year?
Obama presided over the largest housing foreclosures since the Great Depression and there was no reporting on the homeless.
Go to youtube and search for 'homeless LA', 'homeless Portland', 'homeless San Francisco' etc.
People have been posting videos of the homeless for year only now that we have a booming economy and record unemployment with Trump as our President, the Democratic Media Complex is set to make homelessness a national crisis again because it's 'the narrative' that matters.
Isn’t it weird how the issue of homelessness disappears when a Democrat is in office..........
Hmmm...wonder what has changed in the last two years.
Likewise, what was different the previous 7 years?
More proof they corrupt media only talks of things that can hurt POTUS.
Did homelessness rise? Or did vagrancy? They are not the same.
Disappointing that Ben Carson couldn’t get his team to put out more realistic, more honest, and more optimistic numbers. My first suspicion is that this is crooked reporting by Obama holdovers and hate-Trump careerists in HUD.
Who goes around counting the homeless? Could this be an issue of who does the counting rather than how many homeless there are?
Excellent point. And, I suspect, whatever number they actually count, they multiply it by, say, 1.6 for their “best guess estimate” for reporting purposes.
Thank you.
I recall a chapter in Bernie Goldberg’s book “Bias” titled “How Bill Clinton Cured Homelessness”.
HAHAHA.
The Rats dust off their old homeless-is-increasing trick.
I guess there is no shortage of gullible fools who won’t slurp up this garbage.
If you read through the story....what they are saying/suggesting...is a major urbanization problem (LA, Seattle, Portland, NY, etc). Part of this issue, which I could have told them three years ago...you’ve got more and more folks on Opioids and heroin...they can’t hold a job, and they end up living mostly off the street or in some relative’s house. Frankly, I don’t want to throw more money toward some urbanization program to house loser opioid/heroin users.
How do they know they are homeless?
Do they smell them?
Okay..and its just a coincidence it’s happen in the last 2 years and not the previous 7?
But homelessness for illegal aliens has dropped off, bigtime.
Haha. This is so typical!!!
The media and democrats seriously has used the same playbook for 30 years.
I’ve heard that some cities have done a census of people in the streets. And they go out overnight and count people out in the streets.
Such a process will have some guesswork and estimated numbers used. But with a fluid mobile vagrant population, we will never get more precise correct numbers.
So Ben Carson thinks rising rents are a key reason for homelessness?
So if the rent wasn’t too damn high, then homelessness would be solved??? Really??
