It’s hard being homeless. It’s even harder to be homeless with cancer. That’s Bill Mahoney’s current situation. “It’s indescribable,” he said. “I struggle daily mentally - with the physical anguish and the mental anguish.” Mahoney considers himself lucky. He’s sheltered at Pinellas Hope in a small but cozy room with air conditioning. However, he feels for those who aren’t as lucky, those who are living on the streets, and those who might be impacted if a recently-passed bill becomes law.

Where do homeless go? Some are families with kids , disabled people .. why not fix the outrageous rent because the properties aren't worth the $ they charge. Rent gouging. Oh and the govt needs to fund disability with an amount that is enough to last for a month for rent & necessities. Stop funding foreigners.

Some are rent gouging but a lot are just trying to keep up with property taxes and insurance costs. I own a rental home and would like to earn a little income off it to stash away for retirement.

Yes. Too few people are expressing this... heartbreaking.

At least the government is willing to set up approved designated tent areas which is what many large cities across America have done. The homeless can’t afford “affordable” housing either. Local governments approve housing projects with a small percentage deemed “affordable” and we know it’s not enough. It’s getting tough for middle class folks to afford their own homes. I don’t have answers but I feel sad for these people.

But not sad enough to reduce the rent on your own rental properties.

@@friedenhiker1032you have no clue what you’re talking about. If I lower rent then I won’t make any money. I’m not the government and I can’t afford to give shelter for free. You sound envious of me because I’m a women and own my own business. You’re a very sad person.

If you have a fenced yard, cots, and an outside accessible bathroom... are you allowed to have 3 or 4 people camp in your yard?

NO! These are PEOPLE, AMERICANS, who should (and had) real homes, houses, property. They've paid into the system all their lives, but now, Illegals are getting FREE property ownership, and Americans are paying more.
