@abcnews: The biggest case on homelessness in more than 40 years came before the U.S. Supreme Court on Monday. The big question: Can cities punish people who sleep on the streets via ticketing, fines, or even jail-time when people have nowhere else to go? On Monday, a majority of Supreme Court justices appeared sympathetic to an Oregon city that makes it a crime for anyone without a permanent residence to sleep outside. #supremecourt #scotus
😳That’s so messed up and where they supposed to go? Fine them? Huh why ? With what money are they supposed to pay 💰 they don’t have a home omg 😳

I always thought that it should be a case-by-case basis. they should have an administration that views each homeless person 's reason why they became homeless

And those blue cities have homes for illegal immigrants! Not US citizens who have paid SS and can’t afford housing.

There has to be caps on rent. In TN it’s now $1500 a month for a 1 bedroom or more places to rent based on finances.

We should all have the right to life Liberty and the pursuit of happiness. Homelessness should not dictate if you can. Create solutions not criminalize it. ☹️☹️☹️☹️

Reaganomics has caused this to happen. Trickle down economics literally means the middle class has been pissed on. Roll back how much billionaires can make and help the less fortunate a chance

They can’t afford a home so give them even more debt. Ridiculous! If you can’t afford to provide housing, assign areas for them to camp.
