What's the solution? 5'000$ per month tents for homeless residents. [0]

Care to venture a guess how much of that is salaries for government employees in charge of the program? Keep in mind government can only grow in size; never shrink.

I was shocked to come across this figure today:

> "If the United States still hospitalized its mentally ill at the same rate it did in 1955, its mental health institutions would house almost 1.1 million people any given day. Instead, they house fewer than 50,000 patients," - Michael Shellenberger.

They probably do more slave labor in prisons.
