The US has almost 775,000 homeless people according to January 2024 data, which are more than likely underestimating the full scale of the issue. I doubt those people have the privilege of sheds. Doesn't that make the US worse?

"Outside of homeless people" is such crazy goalpost-moving rhetoric when the conversation is about people in extreme poverty.

    thats awfully low, but it must be undereported. at least 40-50mil dont have health insurance. because homeless people is not exactly easy to keep track of, they have permanent address, and they move to other cities alot.
