Suburban homeless: Rising tide of women, families

ROOSEVELT, N.Y. (AP) - Homelessness in rural and suburban America is straining shelters this winter as the economy founders and joblessness hovers near double digits—a "perfect storm of foreclosures, unemployment and a shortage of affordable housing," in one official's eyes.

"We are seeing many families that never before sought government help," said Greg Blass, commissioner of Social Services in Suffolk County on eastern Long Island.

"Yes, there has definitely been an increased number of turnaways this year," said Jennifer Hill, executive director of the Alliance to End Homelessness in suburban Cook County, Illinois. "We're seeing increases in shelter use along the lines of 30 percent or more."

This is just the beginning. 

People are clueless as to where we are heading. 

Its game over. 

The government already has far to many committments and promises to keep in order to give tax relief or the relief people in these situations need. 

150k/year cops, 100k a year personal aides, 100k a year assistants, etc. its a nationwide grind down to a much lower standard of living. 

The government is robbing us blind on every level and literally stealing our livihoods and ability to function in society.

I'm not surprised some people are homeless.  They need to take personal responsibility for their actions and for most those actions involved leveraging up their debt to buy a fancy new home in the hopes of selling it to some other idiot for a 30% higher price when it was time to renew the loan and interest rates. 

Blame the govt all you want but you reap what you sow.  I diversified my investments and took equity out of my home to ensure i wasn't a eggs in one basket guy, most people didn't.  However, this will all bounce back, the housing market has yet to truly hit bottom so the prices keep slipping and at some point it will be more affordable for social housing to purchase new properties for the homeless.

Good for you Jimmy.  I pay my own way on those things you may not but i guess we can't all be that way.  You might need that help right now, i understand.  There really aren't a lot of villages anymore so the pay for idiots is probably not what it used to be.

Many Obamabots were saying that prior to the presidential election. By now they must be thinking about putting a bullet right between their eyes.

Nah, most Obamabots are sitting there busy thinking of ways to legally steal it from the decent people under the guise of 'social fairness'.
