CEA proposed solutions to homelessness will actively harm people
There is one thing that is true in the recent State of Homelessness in America report released by the Council of Economic Advisers: “Improved policies that address the underlying causes of the problem and more effectively serve some of the most vulnerable members of society are needed.”
Yes, we do need improved policies to address the underlying causes of homelessness. But the causes of homelessness outlined in the report overlook the larger, societal contributing factors to homelessness that have quite honestly impacted the number of people experiencing homelessness far more than the things stated in the report.
