How Albuquerque helped its homeless population and saved money in the process
It is mind-boggling that one of the richest countries in the world and definitely the most powerful one has such a big problem with homeless people. My first impression when I came to US 4 years ago and in CA specifically was the amount of homeless people. I have not seen so many even in my home country that has a LOT of illegal immigrants. So far I have not seen any progress, at least in the state of CA. Does anyone know if those people are doing that by choice, is the system &quot;punishing&quot; the people that made a bad choice maybe in the past and lost everything, is it something else ? I have heard that it is very difficult to find a new job once you reach that level, not because you don&#x27;t want to, but because of formalities (e.g. no home address, etc). Is that true ? It is not fair for people to not be able to sleep under a roof or to not be able to have food and clean water (see Africa), and at the same time to have so many technological advances and to have so many millionaires&#x2F;billionaires that care only about their pockets.
