Homelessness has been on the rise ever since the US abandoned the premise of funding public housing. Basically every nation on Earth to tackle this problem did it via public housing, yet Dems are still beholden to the 1990s anti-public-housing worldview. Market solutions failed, tho, so now what?

I don’t wanna discount the right-wing anti-city noise machine, it’s real and it’s very loud and persuasive, and it deeply sucks and I’d personally love to dismantle it. But even if Fox News went off the air tomorrow, that doesn’t solve homelessness. Home prices would solve homelessness.
