Epoch Times - Is The Word "Homeless" a Propaganda? Aired: 2023-11-22 Duration: 00:48 [00:00:00] You know, the word homeless is a propaganda word. [00:00:02] It's designed to make you think that the people that are living on the street are there because rent is too high, housing is scarce. [00:00:09] Well, if that were true, we would see the worst homelessness in Beverly Hills or Carmel, California, or other very wealthy neighborhoods. [00:00:18] But we don't. [00:00:18] We see it in the poor neighborhoods because that's where the city leaders have decided to contain the drug-using, drug-dealing, and drug-addicted population. [00:00:29] I think the other thing we point out is that rents increased all over the United States, including in warm cities like Miami. [00:00:36] That reduced their homeless population. [00:00:38] The bottom line is you have as many people living on the street as you allow. [00:00:44] San Francisco only shelters one-third of its homeless population.
