Homelessness jumps 12% in L.A. County and 16% in the city; officials ‘stunned’
Posted by Solver 5 years, 10 months ago to Government
“In a hard reality check for Los Angeles County’s multibillion-dollar hope of ending homelessness, officials reported Tuesday that the number of people living on the streets, in vehicles and in shelters increased by about 12% over last year.“
“As rent continues to increase and wages remain stagnant, the potential for individuals to fall into homelessness increases,” said Joel John Roberts, chief executive of PATH. “To counteract this imbalance, we must continue to invest in solutions like permanent supportive housing and push for legislation in Sacramento.”
They see the problem. Their solution is always more laws and stricter collective planning. Oh well, who is John Galt?

Because if they had understood it, they would not likely be these “officials” that need to loot people to help people.
Guess what, official stooges? More are on the way!
