There are many people in the U.S. that are brainless also.quote:Originally posted by Clark Kent:
Can a person really be homeless?
If you live under a bridge, that is your home. Thus you are not homeless.
Now, you can be houseless. There are millions of people in the United States who are houseless.

If one keeps expanding the definition of homeless, most children are homeless because they don't own their own homes. Old leftie trick, keep expanding the base by redefining the terms.

Uh, NO!
In 2005, 744,000 homeless people in U.S.
A little more than half were living in shelters, and nearly a quarter were chronically homeless, according to the report Wednesday by the National Alliance to End Homelessness, an advocacy group.

Unfortunately, most of the chronically homeless fit the self imposed status:
Lifetime self-reported alcohol, drug and mental health problems
62% Alcohol
58% Drugs
57% Mental health
27% Mental health and alcohol or drug (dual diagnosed)
By law, those with mental health problems can't be housed against their will, unless they are a menace to themselves or others.
