This is nuts. No wonder we have a problem.

What they really want is for the government (with our money) to pay for food, shelter, haircuts, bus, braces, soccer uniforms, cable tv, shoes and cell phones for everyone. Thus we would be almost completely in communism, which is their real goal. A better idea. Reward achievement and let the government take care of those who genuinely can't take care of themselves, such as the elderly, the blind, the disabled, etc.

Must be where Denver is getting the money to build their apartments for the homeless. No real restrictions . You have to pay 30% of your income as rent. Right.

But that is only an average of 1827.95 each for the 744,000 homeless. We can do better than that? Build a larger rat hole.

WTF! You could put a lot of people to work by lowering taxes on entrepeneurs by 1.4 billion, or whatever the number is.
What is our exit strategy in the war on poverty?

United States had 744,000 homeless people in 2005. Deport them to ghost towns around the US. We have plenty of them.

This is just sickening. There's a "housing crisis" because HUD is creating the very crisis it's supposed to solve.
