This is one of Austin’s numerous homeless camp sites and it’s within a mile of my house; it’s not just an LA or NYC problem! Does it worry or bother me? Yes but not for the same reasons it upsets most Centrist Residents. Firstly, the weather is probably really hurting these people as you can see there’s not much around in the tree department. Secondly, I have a feeling they were from another location, possibly closer into Austin and they were pushed out of the city’s jurisdiction. Given my house being in unincorporated Pflugerville and Austin’s city limit is a tad South, I think they’re on Travis County land. They had a fire break out around a month ago too. Thankfully the PFD came to their rescue to put it out.
Anyway, the affordable housing shortage plaguing Amerika is Kapitalism’s fault because it didn’t create more to meet the demand as per the fake gospel of Adam Smith, it created the shortage to increase demand. So whenever some asshole opens their noise hole to say, “Millions have been killed by Communism,” remind them, “Yes and Kapitalism has killed billions and it’s still going strong during the pandemic.”
