Without additional funding from Congress, close to 60,000 households are at risk of losing assistance, undoing years of progress in their lives and possibly increasing homelessness across the country by as much as 10 percent on average, and by even higher rates in some states.

    The homeless are the permanent underclass of capitalism.

    Don’t some countries effectively have zero homelessness, though? I’m thinking of Finland, but I think there were more.

      Some capitalist countries have more compassion than others. But when the rubber meets the profits in capitalism the outcome will always be the same. People with less money must suffer for those with more money can have luxury.
