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.

    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?

              Scroll up.

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