All those homeless wouldn't have anything to do with the fact that very few jobs are available due to the $15 minimum wage, would it?

Or the fact that the politicians don't actually want to solve crises. Just use them for budgetary/political advantage.

Indeed. They are not interested in "solving" anything, it's going great for them.

Homelessness is a lifestyle they will never work.
