  3. Obviously nobody in any form of government cares. This has been a problem for the past 10 years or more and still nobody cares

  4. January 20. Why did Trump do this? Orange man bad, see I told you so.

  5. Homelessness up 20% in one year. Stock market up over 25%

    This is the bifurcation, aka K shape result

  6. .2% of the population. Issue is not as big as people lead you to believe.

  7. This is following a 12% increase in 2023. Homelessness hasn’t increased at this rate since 2008. Biden is truly the worst president.

  8. Homelessness ranges from 600k-700k.

    It hasn’t changed much over the past 20 years.

  9. Grateful to have affordable housing. I know many don’t right now.

  10. Don’t forget air BnB and private equity buying up all the housing

  11. How many of them own cars but don’t own houses? I think the first thing you need to live in the U.S. is a car, not a house.

  12. That’s a lot, if they could just build a lot more, but it will probably still take decade to catch up even if the NIMBY were defeated right now.
