People really like ignoring we exist. (I’m not homeless now.)

We also make a good foil for things like “why aren’t we helping the homeless rather than X” (whatever X is). That way you don’t really have to promote a solution, and the media doesn’t ask for one.

I had to respond to a Trumpster friend (a devout Catholic) who posted the following meme:

I pointed out that foreign aid was only 1% of the budget and his response was, yes but even that was too much because priorities. Am 1000% confident that he is fine with letting all these groups suffer for tax cuts for the wealthy, and he would believe that the homeless should just get a job. Anything that conservatives promote, he will regurgitate.
