There are probably vacant homes all around places like the Rust belt — as a nation we have probably sufficient housing for at least group homes. We need national funding, to get people housed and rehabilitated. Jobs are a nice idea, but having many relatives on disability, when your life has gone that far off course it just may not be feasible — but everyone benefits from them not living on the streets.

I mean yes, a lot of those people were literally shipped there from the rust belt or southern states. Famously Texas and company paying to bus or fly people to California and Massachusetts. I believe several of them were major press events etc - not a secret either. You are correct.
