"No more talking about the homeless"

(03-09-2018, 05:09 PM)TrainChaser Wrote: I read some time back that there are about five vacant homes for every homeless person (18.9 million homes, 3.5 million people). And they're still building new homes.

Homeless and Empty Homes — an American Travesty: https://www.huffingtonpost.com/richard-s...92546.html

The article (and others like it) says "It’s time to sort out the regulations and rates that would facilitate the solution: turning empty houses into homes for those in need".

But then you can go to YouTube and watch the videos of tenants who have destroyed Section 8 and other homes.

I don't know what the solution is, but maybe some pieces of land where van and RV dwellers can park.


That article is from 2010. We had a major housing collapse. That caused foreclosures to skyrocket. Those homes were owned by banks. Banks are for profit companies, not social services.
