The homeless numbers in the United States of American are indeed dropping and much of this is due to the increase of jobs and the need for all businesses to hire more people. It is rather interesting that no one has made mention of this fact but I thought I should having visited so many homeless communities and shanty towns in my travels. In fact in the last five years I have been to every single city in the United States with over 10,000 population and I am noticing homeless numbers dropping. This is a great thing and it proves that capitalism works and is probably the best way to run a civilization. Indeed I believe that the reason this has not been mentioned so much lately is due to the democrat and Republican divide we see in politics. Where anything the Bush Administration does is automatically bad and when they do something really spectacular such as our stellar economic performance we cannot mention it. Why is this? Well it is due to the fact that much of the print media is very anti-Conservative. What is somewhat fascinating is that the Democrats are always screaming about the homeless, but now that the homeless numbers are dwindling they are not longer discussing it. Why? Well, because it is not an issue like it once was. Many of those folks are back to work and off the street. Sure there will always be some who are homeless by choice, but the numbers have dropped drastically; havent you noticed this in 2006. |
