I have known for many years that the Homeless problem in California is mostly caused by the simple Supply and Demand , , , Rule .
for at least 30 + years now .
Drug and Alcohol and Substance Abuse problems are just a small part of Homeless Problem , they are just more visible than what I call the invisible Homeless .
Much of the Homeless Problem comes from hundreds of thousands of homeless people in other States coming to California to continue their Homelessness in a Warmer Climate , and the Millions of people who have come in from Countries from South of the Border for around 30 years now , thereby creating a Bigger Demand for Housing .
The Real Estate industry loves High Demand and Low Supply . And Liberal / Progressive politicians love High Taxes .
In other words the Liberal/Progressive politicians love taking your money , money that you probably worked hard for .
for every Street Homeless with Drug/Alcohol/Substance abuse problems there are many Homeless you do not see.
I call them the invisible Homeless , They live in Cars, Vans, RV's , Trailers , and going from one Relative to another on a rotating basis .
They are around everywhere in my part of California, for several years now .
Taxes and Permit fees are much higher in California that other States .

Yikes. I wonder if this guy actually believes that the homeless problem was caused or exacerbated by the cost of building permits/fees.
