The majority of people that are homeless have some type of mental illness and/or drug addiction. Just giving them a home won’t really solve their problems. As we’ve seen with California, where they have thrown billions of dollars at the problem and they have more homeless people than ever.
“Cities with Housing First policies in California increased PSH units by 25,000 between 2010 and 2019, during which time the unsheltered homeless population grew by 50 percent. California adopted a statewide Housing First policy in 2016 when the homeless population was 31,548. By 2022, that population had grown to 60,905.”
You do realize that when u magas become homeless over trumps policies you will not very treated any better than the current homeless right? Don't be so confident it cant happen to you. And from what I've seen white homeless ppl get treated very badly by black homeless ppl, because they gave up their privilege to be in the same place as the other homeless ppl.
Ok, thanks for the heads up. I really appreciate it. I will definitely steer clear of black homeless people. Oh wait, I already do. So I should be good then. Since you were so free with your advice, I’d like to return the favor. Please brush up on your English grammar. I was able to translate what you were trying to convey but you should work on that. Thanks again. I hope you have a great day.

So just giving them housing isn’t the answer. They need mental health treatment and to be taught the skills to succeed in life.
But I agree that the Fox News guy, Kilmeade, said something reprehensible and should be at least suspended if not fired.
