Ironically, the more massive and visible homelessness becomes, the stronger the urge becomes to deny that it has systemic origins, and the more frenzied become the efforts to chalk it up to the individual failings of the ever larger numbers of persons swelling the ranks of the homeless. The more implausible such arguments become, the more fanatically and vehemently they have to be made, and the more sadistic the authorities feel obliged to become towards the homeless.

Yup. Americas homeless crisis is 100 percent manufactured. We created the housing first model the rest of the world is implementing with tremendous success, but then we did away with it because America has always put profits before people
