Greed, not housing units, causing homelessness problem

Published 1:30 am Wednesday, December 25, 2024

Please make those so-called experts stop trying to promote transitional housing as a cure for our homeless problems.

They keep saying we need over a million more homes built. What a misguided effort that would be! The problem is greed! Plain old corporate capitalism.

Only if they build small 600-square=foot houses and charge $200 a month will solve the problem we are in. The “experts” live way too far from reality of cold, damp alleys and tarps. Why not house the homeless inside the warm hundreds of churchs we have sitting empty all week long?
