How’s that “free trade” thing working out, America?
I think it’s amazing how when the democrats are in charge there are no homeless or at least it’s not a problem
Perfect timing......homeless population explosion just in time for a republican POTUS
MSM throws party.....
NYT buys extra barrels of ink....
HUD and Wall St. friends of BO will figure out a way to turn all those foreclosed homes into HUD Section 8s.
Taxpayers soon to be landlords without getting to put the rent checks in the bank!!!
So in other words we need to pay more taxes so the gubmint can pay the rent for the “homeless”.
See how Easy it is. Initiate a program like this in the background; have the money run out; demonize Republicans for not wanting to extend these benefits; media starts their campaign, and we have another built-in welfare program forever. Nobody says they have to stop drugs, get treatment, go learn a trade...just add more money to the budget and go on our “merry way”. Been done thousands of times by the politicians.
It has been postulated that the next fiscal crises will result from the States being unable to meet pension obligations. Perhaps homelessness will be one of the effects.
Dimes to dollars that the homeless kids don’t have a two parent family. Usually the dad is missing.
That is the problem. Homelessness is but one fruit of it.
There are no more homeless in this country after Obama took office. Those people at the parking lot exits begging for money? They’re now known as “MINSTRELS”. Happy-go-lucky people who entertain the public with their quaint costumes and funny signs. Democrats - “Don’t fix it! Rename it!”
These homeless figures are artificially inflated.
* A girl kicked out of her apartment and moving back in with Mom with the baby isn’t homeless, she just moved. But when the adult moves back in, it’s counted as “homeless”.
* If a woman with children moves into a shelter, she gets placed in an emergency list to get a Section 8 living place, versus waiting a few years to move out of her mother’s place and into “her own”. She counts as homeless for that time, but it is really gaming the system to jump ahead in line.
Could it be that Section 8 is keeping rents higher than what working people can afford?
