Sounds like what I used to read in the 1980s and early 19902. Then, magically, poof! No more mentions of homelessness until the last couple of years. Now, why could that be?

Btw, any fool who claims that homelessness just suddenly ends during Democrat administrations and resumes under Republican ones clearly has never spent any time in San Francisco.

100% correct. Does anybody remember the endless shows on homelessness on Nightline and the nightly network news during the Bush Sr. run against Clinton? The problem disappeared overnight after Clinton won and the word "homeless" wasn't spoken on the networks for 8 more years.

A soaring economy tends to make a sizeable dent in a homeless problem, now doesn't it ?

When you are exporting skilled, high paying jobs there are consequences. Is that so hard to understand ?
