Homelessness in the U.S. increased in 2018 for the second straight year after being in decline for seven years previously, according to The Wall Street Journal.

The small 0.3 percent increase from last year comes as the economy is booming and unemployment is at its lowest point in decades.
=========================================
If this is MAGA a lot of REDS have either been misled or are celebrating this troubling trend in Trump's America.

I knew you'd find some way to blame this on Trump.


Carry on....

Hmm... it seems that about 10% of them are in Los Angeles, CA - that conservative bastion of Trump supporters. The primary driver of homelessness is said to be the lack of affordable housing. What has Trump done to make this such an issue in CA?
 
Nearly one quarter of the country’s entire homeless population lives in New York City or Los Angeles as both cities grapple with increasing rents prices. Average rent in Los Angeles has increased 35 percent since 2012 and 20 percent in New York, according to the Journal. Both BLUE states.

Under Obama there was no homeless people. All was sugar and honey! Wonderful. :doh
What exactly has happened to cause more homeless. Unemployment is at a all time low. If you want a job you can get a job!
So what we have here is a another odd little story that must want to blame president Trump. Guess people would rather be
homeless?

I feel very sorry for people who are homeless in this country. I thank my stars every day that I've got a great life and a roof over my kids' head and don't live paycheck to paycheck.
