    I like how the article dramatically says “fact check verdict false” to the original claim of 22 houses per homeless person, and then clarifies there’s actually 31 per homeless person.

    Corporate outsourcing was treason; an eternal trade deficit against the average person, community, and region. It excludes the consumer from the financial cycle. Cheaper goods are garbage when they enslave people to dependency upon them while barring participation in the local economy. The trickle down is all that exists in a void that should be a deluge.

    There are 100k homeless people within 100 miles of me in the Los Angeles area right now. That’s 100k human beings that are treated worse than feral animals or Nazi concentration camps where humans were still sheltered with a roof and fed with some kind of structure for a time. Our failure to acknowledge and resolve the issue is worse than the baseline morality of the Nazis.

    It’s not broken, it’s working as intended.

    Although it’s only 31 if we have an accurate count of homeless people, which we almost certainly don’t. Still probably far more homes than homeless.
