Homeless children at record high in US. Can the trend be reversed?

One out of every 45 children – some 1.6 million – is homeless, according to a report released Tuesday. That number surpasses the one set after hurricanes Katrina and Rita.

By Andrew Mach, Contributor / December 13, 2011

“If you believe that children are the future of our country, then you should be concerned because these homeless children have gradually become a prominent part of a third world that is emerging in our own backyards,” says Ellen Bassuk, president of the National Center on Family Homelessness in Needham, Mass.

After 30 yrs of failed conservative ideology how do you expect people to achieve the American Dream when they can't earn enough to keep a roof over their children's head.

Does anyone possess a clue as to why our U.S. government spends $12 billion every 30 days in Afghanistan and Iraq while 1.5 million of our citizens remain homeless and 13.4 million American children live in poverty?

[PostmodernProphet]

report, which actually is referring to 2010 data, misrepresents.......the data does not show that 1.6 million ARE homeless, but that at some point in time in 2010 they WERE homeless, even if it were for a week......house gets foreclosed on, move in with grandma.....you're on the list.......
