I was surprised to find that by far the most frequent cause of homelessness is domestic violence — and I assume that most of these are women, women who feel safer on the streets of L.A. than in their own homes.
Well that’s BS. I see many many more men that are homeless than women. And I don’t know about where other people live but here in California the illegals and their families have taken up all the low income neighborhoods. In our small city the whole Eastside, which used to be less expensive than the rest of the city, is all Mexicans, Guats, etc. now. They also moved in and took over what used to be our black part of town moving them westward. Turned good parts of town into ghettos.
Lots of consequences from illegal immigration. If they want to talk the high price of renting as the cause of homelessness they have to address the illegal immigration issue at the same time. But they won’t.
It is indeed BS.
I suspect the majority of homeless people seeking assistance are women, thus they make it on the lists.
But the real vast majority of homeless people are men. Who are never counted or identified.
“Well that’s BS. I see many many more men that are homeless than women.”
Of course you do, because nearly all homeless people are men. Women have one asset they can generally trade for a place to sleep at night, while men usually don’t have that option.
I would bet that the reason behind that statistic is because they are probably counting every woman who is living in a “battered women’s shelter” as homeless. I wouldn’t really consider that to be homeless, and it certainly is not the same as living in a homeless shelter among junkies and criminals where they kick you back out on the streets every morning.
Governments (politicians) at any level never take responsibility for their own failures. They just continue to pile on more taxes, fees, laws and regulations. Plus patronage study committees and other useless stuff.
Please PLEASE everyone who can, watch "Seattle is Dying" Seattle is Dying,
It gives a objective, plain, and TREMENDOUS picture of what is RUINING our big cities especially, and, what makes it really special, actually presents a SOLUTION to the problem, and PROOF that the solution works!
Watch it if you have the nerve...
...Or just keep bitching about how "no one will ever solve this problem.....
It sure sounds like virtue signaling to the pollster to me.
