The PBO found that the program had paid for 17,849 people to find housing placements and for an additional 5,399 people to find emergency housing

So the conclusion is homelessness has risen, but it would be worse without the money.

Yeah but it’s NatPo, so you have to have some conservative angle about how spending money on social issues is literally the devil.

They only think that spending public money on social issues is literally the devil.

I thought that I’ve seen Natpo take money from the rich to post ads disguised as articles about how good those rich people are for donating to things, but it was hosted content from other “Post Media” outlets. So, it’s still basically them, just not them-them.
