A House is not a Home

On any given night in America, anywhere from 700,000 to 2 million people are homeless., according to the National Law Center on Homelessness and Poverty. Living on Skid Row has opened my eyes to this unfortunate blight. Given this is technically my last night in Bum Village, I thought it only apropos the 50 be about my neighbors.
PS-the UN has now decided they don't recognize the term "homelessness", and is urging all countries to adopt "houselessness" instead....hmmm.
