A growing number of Americans are ending up homeless as soaring rents in recent years squeeze their budgets.

According to a Jan. 25 report from Harvard’s Joint Center for Housing Studies, roughly 653,000 people reported experiencing homelessness in January of 2023, up roughly 12% from the same time a year prior and 48% from 2015. That marks the largest single-year increase in the country’s unhoused population on record, Harvard researchers said.

    I see. So the responsibility for this rests solely on Biden’s shoulders and you don’t have to do anything but talk about it on the internet. Convenient.

      Now that she’s shown that she has answered your questions, could you answer hers?

        Sure. No I don’t agree with a premise when it is not feasible.

          A bit hypocritical of you, and opinion cowardly, but you do you.

            Insulting me will not make me accept a ludicrous premise. If you told me that Martians are eating my eyeballs, why would it be hypocritical or cowardly for me to say I didn’t accept that premise when you asked me?

                  What am I dodging? In specific?

                  Scroll up.

                  That question is another dodge, and everyone can see it as such.

      🙄

      Some responsibility rests on Biden’s shoulders, far more than on mine or yours. You’re seemingly absolving him, as if blaming him for anything is wrong.
