The last time homelessness hit a record high was just before the last global financial crisis.

Things are happening, immense human suffering. This can probably happen a lot more before something happens because humans are flawed

Just move somewhere cheaper and easier to live in like everyone else has ever done for the entire existence of the species

These are national figures, so people should leave the country and set themselves up in an entirely different culture? That is very expensive, moving everything to a new country costs thousands of dollars in shipping fees and bureaucratic fees.

The homeless figure is at a record high because this is not how it has always been done. The recent numbers are outliers compared to the rest of the data.

That's a national mean average, there are places in America where it's very cheap to live and places where it's very expensive to live.

> That is very expensive

Just walk out your door and go to a new place. If you aren't prepared to do that, your situation can't be so bad.

Both places are more expensive, and the number of homeless increases in tandem with those rising prices.

Cheaper areas still require paystubs from a local employer, and you can't walk your furniture to the affordable rural town.

Why do you think homeless numbers are up?

There are more than 2 places in the USA

Abandon your furniture, start over again. You can get a job somewhere else easily before you even leave.

Homeless people are too strung out, stupid, lazy or unwilling to make the effort to migrate elsewhere. Most of them choose to be in the street, by behaving so disgustingly that they're banned from all the local help centers. Some think they're being countercultural. Most are just goddamn druggies.

Why are there more people that are strung out, stupid, lazy or unwilling to make the effort when the cost of housing goes up?

Because they are too strung out, stupid, lazy or unwilling to make the effort to migrate towards somewhere else to live and work.

The answer is the same, and it's not circular reasoning as you're implying it is.

Think about it for a second, and maybe you'll understand? And once again, that's not what you asked.
