Anywhere there is tremendous wealth, there is going to be a bigger disparity in income inequality. The Bay Area has a housing supply problem right now (and no, starting a company that is cramming five+ millennials into an empty luxury apartment is not a viable solution) that needs addressed, and I don't think we should conflate it with the homeless problem. The homeless across the nation all congregate in California because of the weather, and its a much harder problem to tackle that requires more than just the involvement of a private tech company to solve. The solution needs to be the government creating more of a safety net for mentally ill, not private companies somehow equalizing them in wealth (read: redistributing) with some of the smartest, hardest working people in the world. I got the impression that this article is pointing the blame finger at Facebook, and I don't see how Facebook has any more responsibility than anybody else for helping the homeless. Facebook shouldn't feel compelled to offer software engineering jobs to skid row, that's not the solution. There are many actors here, it's hard to point the blame at just one.
