@@BlackJesus8463 No. Evidence points to that. People become homeless for a short while due to poor financial circumstances (personal causes like failure to save or economic causes like government regulations, taxation, etc.). People who are homeless for long periods are mentally ill.

Plot homelessness and government spending on a graph, see if there is any correlation. In fact, plot war, waste, corruption, medical expenses, education on a graph with government spending and see if you see any correlation.
I used to live in Ocean beach, San diego, and we had a shop that sold stickers and hats that asked our tourists to please not feed our bums.

I think we're supposed to call it "unhousedness" now.
historical controversies was an excellent podcast, especially the coverage of the civil war period.

" housing first" makes sense from a very limited perspective-- that it is virtually impossible to accomplish any task of self-improvement or bootstrapping-- *especially* while addicted to substances or mentally ill-- without a safe and stable home. So, it is necessary. But that doesn't mean it is sufficient. Just as important as housing is individual responsibility and challenge. You can't just give stuff to people and expect them to improve their lives. I'm just addressing the crisis aspect. I'm not addressing the structural economic reforms we must make so that involuntary homelessness is no longer a thing.
Housing first isn't supposed to be contrasted with treatment first, but shelter first. I haven't finished the podcast yet, but the up to now failure to mention Shellenburger's work is disappointing. Basically, the housing first people believe in privacy and the dignity that comes with it, and they think "shelter first" is undignified.
Temporary homelessness is financial health. Permanent homelessness is mental health.
Did socialism teach you that?
Thank you!
i.e., Useless Eaters!

Or plot homelessness (or anything else) against the Fed's balance sheet.
Chris Calton's series on Mises were the best and I miss those.
Yeah definitely some good stuff

You're not giving them anything you didn't steal from someone else.
@@BlackJesus8463 Even in the context of private charity, however, housing first is likely to be a failed policy vs shelter first.
Cheaper to colonize Mars than live in California
there's gonna be a fire sale and the poor still cant afford it.
Because of debt, inflation and fentanyl
"Fentanyl?"
Seriously?
That's only a problem for weak, stupid idiots!
And the world certainly doesn't need them.
Correct?
Socialism took their home and gave it to someone with fake money.
