"No more talking about the homeless"

[technomadness]

Think about it this way. Take %100 of the population. Say %78 can easily afford a house. Say %18 are homeless and not going to afford a house soon. Then there’s %4 on the bubble. You raise taxes, increase regulation, prevent development and drive up the costs of houses. Houses/apartments going up %10 in a decade is quite likely (plus their inflation which is over %10 itself)... now those %4 on the bubble, some escape and buy houses anyway, but say %3 are now going homeless.

That’s a %16 increase in the size of the homeless population!

There really is no magical money tree. Taxes and regulations make people poor, and do far more harm than any good. Plus regulations for safety are better handled by courts. Right now industry writes the laws and gets liability coverage from them. So we are less safe.
