      Good luck with that. Now, with Trump coming in, the homeless are going to get much worse. He is already constructing concentration camps for migrents. I bet homelessness will eventually be part of that. If you're not white, Catholic, and wealthy enough to own a house, Trump doesn't want you. You're unlucky enough not to make rent and out on the street. To the camp with you. Trump and Repubs are racist heartless SOBs, hell bent on destroying America and the West.

    Half of americas homeless, or more, are not counted when these numbers are acquired. They live out of their vehicles and that "homeless" community is not counted....only those sleeping rough on the streets and at encampments...and people at the city shelters....and those who are on the special govt. housing lists.
    People living in their vehicles are never counted. Right now, in the State of Arizona alone there are well over 2 million people living in their car, truck, van or RV. This is for real, factual. I guarantee you that AT VERY LEAST, 10% of them are legally homeless. Thats at least a quarter million homeless people, in one State alone...who have not been counted. I know this because im one of these. And im also an un-counted homeless veteran. 3 years living in my van now. Yeah, the true number of people who are actually homeless in the US today, need to be doubled if not tripled. Watch what happens in 2025!!!

And idk how I’m going to “upgrade” or I’m just going to lose this. I might be able to upgrade my car first. I’ve had to rent an apt because it was too cold to stay out in my 5th wheel anymore in the cold. Long story but u get the point ….. happy to have an apt . It’s cold out today.

      No... it has to do with corporate greed, regardless of who is in the WH. Corporate greed is making affordable housing less and less a thing. Even people with decent jobs can't afford rent or to get a mortgage. Then it spirals from there. It was a problem when Trump was last in the WH and one when Biden was... until we rein in greed from corporations, this will just continue. If you look at what has changed over the last 30 or so years, CEO salaries, companies paying less to workers in relation to costs, and companies just out to make their shareholders happy and rich... that's where things have gone off the rails.
