The right wing sites are bs because they show those homeless pics but they don't show the places where people live and how housing remains expensive because of high demand . The comparison to right wing places is bs also because nobody lives there . There isn't much going on there . You can't make money like you can in SF and LA . Businesses are not going there .
In fact those right wing towns are offering people money to live there.
So yeah, the homeless situation sucks and is veRY bad . The ones more affected tend to be the working class/middle class types because they are often the ones that work and open businesses in the areas these homeless people are in.
The closure of walgreens is an example . That's a lot of jobs from minimum wage to high pay jobs because of the pharmacy .
