Tent Cities Are Beginning To Pop-Up
In a recent article by the Boston Globe, it seems that more and more Americans with no-where else to go are resorting to living in tents. Whether it is due to a loss of work, loss of home or just no-where else to go, the rate of homeless people in America is rising dramatically. So far, this has not become a problem yet in Southwest Florida, but we really don't know how many people have moved into secluded areas as squatters yet. I'm willing to bet that we have our fair share of people camping in secluded areas.
This is one of the issues I grappled with when I wrote my 2008 predictions part I and II. I really had hoped that it wouldn't get this far this quickly, and I am afraid that it is only going to get worse.
The biggest question in my mind right now is how are our Presidential Candidates, John McCain and Barack Obama going to handle this issue. My concern about the next administration is well rooted in the way that the Bush administration has handled the housing crisis. All the Bush Administration is really concerned about is the big banks at this point in time.
