My brother has been dead almost a decade now but before he croaked he was homeless most of his life in LA and Reno. In fact, LA's solution back then was to bus the homeless away (sent my brother to reno). They did give housing to some, and my brother eventually got on permanent disability and they paid for a place for him to live (after loosing some toes to frostbite, and developing elephantitice due to bad circulation). Homelessness is certainly not a new problem, but it has increased and of course there is now the internet and better media coverage etc. Also your homeless population has probably evolved and now includes many people who have gone to college etc (which is sad all by itself). Eventually they are probably going to start locking up the homeless to prevent them from vandalizing etc, which, if the numbers are still the same, is CRAZY cause it costs so much more to incarcerate someone then it would to just pay for them to have an apartment and food. --- Tacobot 3000 "Saving the world from not having tacos."
