[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Funny how liberals are all for affordable housing then turn around and say not in my backyard. Homelessness and affordable housing are dem created problems. Doesn’t happen where republicans control because they fix the issues for the blue collar working class.[/quote] I volunteered at a homeless shelter for several years. Many, many homeless have jobs and live in shelters. A lot of the homeless women would work at Walmart and the homeless men would get restaurant dishwasher jobs. We served dinner around 5:00 but always had a list of plates to prepare and hold for the homeless that would be coming later after they got off of their jobs. I agree when jobs are available that homelessness falls. The couples would typically live at the shelter and working jobs for about 10 weeks and then they would find housing that they could afford with their jobs.[/quote]
