    I’m tired of hearing that housing the disenfranchised is a large complex problem. This has been going on for the past decade at least, and there are still huge problems with finding affordable housing.

      Its a large complex problem when no one wants to spend money.

      It’s a really simple problem with proper funding. But that doesn’t get votes.

        Yes, exactly.
        “Why is nobody solving the housing crisis when we leave all housing to the free market which has no incentive to build affordable housing?! Nobody can figure this crazy problem out!”

          It’s crazy how we’ve deluded ourselves into believing the free market will solve everything.

          Can’t wait for continued privatization and shrinkflation hitting shit we rely on like Healthcare.
