the #1 Reason people do not sleep in shelters- Lack of Available Beds There is not enough shelter for everyone!

I belong to a group called Reason and Passion and we talk about political issues everyday. The issue of the human condition is always there. Homelessness in America, came up.
Here a some statements said by a member in our group, which is actually a very common census
"Most of those homeless people don't need to be. There are county programs for housing, but must be drug free. Most stay homeless by choice."

"I said they CHOOSE to be homeless." " That is the choice between being sober or homeless. All these programs exist now, not just suggestions. They just have to choose to use them and adhere to them."

"There are always exceptions."
