Should America Outlaw Homelessness?

“Housing First” is a the solution that has been embraced by countries around the world. Time to repudiate the failed Reaganomics experiment and take it seriously again here in America.

Simply outlaw homelessness.

Not as in “make homeless people outlaws”: we've already done that. It hasn't worked particularly well.
