Why are so few Immigrant-Americans without Housing?

by Paul Hays Saturday, Jul. 21, 2001 at 5:06 AM

Many Immigrants are living in poverty but few are without a place to live. That's right. Income, benefits and social services must rise. Not the false assumption that construction of apartments is needed.They are needed to some degree. There are only a few hard edge homeless people.We describe this

The Task Force for the Homeless states without a doubt that their are nearly 25,000 homeless people in Atlanta. Go to a Food Not Bombs serving and ask them. They say they serve about 100-200 people a day.

Part of this discrepancy stems from the fact that the TFFH counts anyone who has received assistance in that calendar year.

So if your girlfriend hit you with an imported beer bottle and you moved away to get safe and you did'nt have a

safe place for 3 days while you stayed with friends and you needed a voucher you are counted as homeless by the TFFH. So are with veterans who have mental illnesses, people who got addicted to crack and overslept their job at the warehouse, people who are in severe poverty.

Both count as 1 but these people are not in equal categories. That's one reason people do not want to help people without housing in Atlanta, it's not always indifference or their own suffering sometimes they are driven away by the faulty science that drives some of the debate.

Dear Author: If you read "Immigrants, Mad Dogs, and Englishmen" Id=53197(53200); you will understand that they just might be living on the Social Security cards of the victims of the "Silent Murder Epidemic" Id=24603 and the "Concealed Holocaust" Id=35206. They have also probably been instructed on how to handle any questions about the legitimacy of their residency, including getting rid of those who ask questions. California is cut off from the rest of the world so that this process continues because "No Body is Going to do Nothing about It" Id=41739. California is a stronghold of the "Storm Troopers of America" that were formed here when the "Supreme Narky.." Id=31749 brought the Storm Troopers of Germany back here to carry out the Plans of the Synagogue of Satan and the Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion, available via www.google.com.. They will kill you with kindness so you can't complain. Learn how to "Heed Not the Foolproof Folly" Id=49490 before it's too late.
