Right? And the programs that help with housing people are being cut. So there won't be shelters or anything to help. There will be some, just fewer. Federal funding is such a big part of the social safety nets (of which there still aren't enough).
This is going to get bad.
Absolutely.I've worked in a few of those cities in homelessness services-from shelters up to policy aide to the Mayor.
I've seen the services under both R and D.Neither really are actually trying to fix the problem, Imo.That being said, the GOP is destroying the work we did to reduce homelessness.
Definitely don't get used to it. it makes me so angry knowing that it wouldn't even cost much to end homelessness. I mean it's a lot of money but in the federal budget it would be an insignificant amount. much much less than letting people die on the street. I'm tired of attending those memorials 😔
They're horrid. It's thinly disguised as Christian mandates or whatever, but the Catholic social Teaching (while very flawed in many ways) is explicit about caring for others and society working to benefit all the people. Jesus wants them to love all.
With natural disasters we are most likely already at or over 1 million homeless people. With the mass layoffs still happening, we're already working on 2 million. Instead of Starbucks on every corner. We're going to have homeless encampments on every corner
