57. "mental health issues that cause homelessness are a minority, I suspect." NONE of it CAUSES
homelessness. THere are plenty of seriously mentally ill people who are NOT homeless.... the difference is MONEY.

As for the other side.... yes, you are right.. it is a minority.

Sixteen percent. 16%.

Yet, people want to keep equating homelessness with mental illness. Everytime Thom Hartmann does that, I want to throw something at the radio! Get. Educated. Thom!
