    Los Angeles County’s homeless population has soared 23% over last year despite increasing success in placing people in housing, according to the latest annual count released Wednesday.

    The sharp rise, to nearly 58,000, suggested that the pathway into homelessness continues to outpace intensifying efforts that — through rent subsidies, new construction, outreach and support services — got more than 14,000 people permanently off the streets last year.

    Homelessness also increased sharply in the city of Los Angeles, where the count of just over 34,000 was up 20% from 2016.

    Typical capitalism. If you do not care for people around you - no one will care about you also if anything happens.

    Biggest fun here is that official guys tell that it is impossible to build good shelters. At the same time they spend billions at various shit.

    Humans have built good shelters for 1000's of years. That's something that actually isn't impossible.
