U.S. Homeless Count Surges 12% to Highest-Recorded Level

I mean, if you want to blame Biden do you also give him credit for the increased value of your home? I'm sure you do

 

Who knew the OP is a firm believer in government housing solutions? I support it too.

I'm sure DeSantis and the FL supreme court killing rent control didn't contribute

 

I think the most interesting part of this is the "silver tsunami" of boomers that are becoming homeless. I read an article about this a few months back and how a lot of boomers are falling prey to politics they voted for. Essentially their generation is responsible for making home/rent prices skyrocket while wages struggled to keep up.

 

Stated differently:
"Joe Biden now has been the worst POTUS for housing equality in our history."
The rich get richer under Joe and the poor keep getting poorer. Shame, shame, shame.

 

No argument from me there. The alternative is supporting heavy handed govt intervention into the housing and rental markets. I doubt Republicans actually want that, since they literally vote against it all the time.

 

So Old Joe is responsible for decades of federal tax policy that resulted in the rich becoming richer. Who would have thought? Certainly not according to actual data. And I guess he's also responsible for local zoning ordinances which have had effect of discouraging the construction of affordable housing

thats ok, billions for ukraine, nothing for americans, and yet ukraniens cant vote.

 

Wait, this isn't the thread where you complain about giveaways to those lazy American takers?

 

I'm sure that he would be complaining if Biden proposed legislation to address the shortage of housing for low and moderate income Americans.

 

Right wingers want to complain about economic conditions that their preferred politicians helped to create and for which the only relevant solution is their definition of "socialism."

 

100% Joe Biden - elected in the 1970's to the US Senate his policies soon forced the significant separation of income distribution so that by 1980 the separation became easily seen and has continued to widen because of Biden (that rhymes, if you didn't catch it). Joe is the most covert, astute, and brilliant strategist working and pretending to be "doofus Joe" yet controlling everything from his modest home in Delaware. "Problems widen when you get Biden!"

 

Where those lines start diverging is also where productivity and wages started diverging.

 

You think that Biden had the much influence? The Republicans were in the majority during 20 of the 36 years he was in the Senate and a Republican was in the White House during 22 of those years. It was the Reagan tax cuts and the Tax Reform Act of 1986 that were instrumental in the redistribution of income and both were enacted under a Republican president and Republican Senate majority combined with enough conservative Democrats in the House to give the Republicans significant control of legislative agenda from 2001 through 2006 and in the period of 2001 through 2006 the Republicans controlled the presidency and both Houses of Congress. Whether your willing to admit it or not it was the policy of low taxes for the wealthy that was largely responsible for the increased disparity of income. Previously posted in post #9 and by the way the disparity increased even further under Trump (not included in the graph).

 

no. I don’t. It was a facetious post
Thank you for your earnest and honest reply. Your troubles widen when you vote for Biden.

 

More corporate tax cuts ought to fix this.

 

Good thing the Biden Administration let 8 million more illegals into our country.
That should help eliminate homelessness.

 

A lot of “illegal” immigrants work in homebuilding and construction trades, so actually yeah it should help with homelessness.
