I hate that it is interesting. ”Logic” tells me a 20x monthly income increase would lead to more than a 1% increase in housed population. 6.5x more than _that

”Logic” tells me a 20x monthly income increase would lead to more than a 1% increase in housed population.
6.5x more than _that_ only led to a 5% increase in housed population.
Sigh. Everything sucks, doesn’t it?

- more_corn 2y agoI think this just means start with $50 a month to get the first tranche, test other interventions for each subsequent group (maybe mental health support, a fixed mailing address, job training) It’s just evidence. You wanted a clean solution and you got evidence that the thing you thought solved the problem doesn’t have the effect you’d like.
