Nearly 28 million households -- one in four -- reported spending more than 30% of their income on housing, according to the Millennial Housing Commission.
I wonder if there's a connection. Hint #2: Don't buy a house you can't afford.
The increase in homelessness and hunger is overwhelming some cities and shelters: An average of 30% of the requests for emergency shelter by homeless people -- and 38% of the requests by homeless families -- are estimated to have gone unmet in 2002, according to the Conference of Mayors.
It's not the job of the gov't to provide you with housing and food. I know it's not always the case, but don't most these people have friends or family?
Alfred Thompson, a job trainer at Goodwill Industries of Kentucky in Louisville, says one of his homeless clients lost his job and is living in his Mercedes, which is paid for, while he seeks employment.
Uhh, maybe sell the Mercedes and buy something cheaper. You can get reliable transportation for less than $3000. See Hint #1.
Yup, sounds like the dems are trying to drop this turd in GWB's lap. It is, after all, his responsibility to provide jobs to everyone. Since there were no homeless during Klinton's term, why can't Bush do it?
Or rather "don't buy what you will not be able to afford in the future". You need the gift of clairvoyance of cource.
