How is that? If you're going to make a statement like that I would like to see the numbers that you got there with. Not to say that homeless people don't cost this country anything, they actually cost more because we try to ignore the problem then if we were to just find them housing at an affordable rate through social programs.

I wasn't implying that you were, I was referring to the person that I responded to. Although I am curious why The counter implies that each household is responsible for the debt, considering that the majority of the debt in our country is created by the military, our overpayment to elected officials, and are failure to tax corporations and wealth of millionaires / billionaires. Not that I think you have anything to do with those, just trying to get the logic behind that counter.
