    In 1971, there was a low-income subsidized housing program. Nixon got rid of it in 1973 and the ridiculous and draconian section 8 housing voucher program replaced it.

    The real homelessness problem started then. It has ballooned more recently.

    And I wouldn’t call that a sore spot. That really downplays the seriousness of it.
