If Billionaires Paid Their Fair Share Of Taxes America Wouldn't Have A Homeless Problem

So when you look at the "camps" just think. All these folks could move into the 7th to the 30th bedrooms of the filthy rich, and "the problem" would disappear.

I know it's just an analogy but the 1% has 50 trillion dollars in wealth, and they made it by not putting $$$ back into the system.


The poor, homeless, beaten down, people with problems are simply left to fend for themselves while our owners skim everything off the top to spend on bigger yachts, homes, and private islands, while paying less in taxes than someone making minimum wage in many cases.

There is no help for the homeless.

They want it that way.

If we are fighting each other over the crumbs, they get ALL the cake, and we don't even notice.

Remember the 1% could pay off our entire national debt and wouldn't even miss the money.
