  • Not being willing to break things is what got Dems into this position in the first place.

    I agree, anything we do - they will do worse - unencumbered by ethics or morals.

    We would have to shut the door behind us. Sounds shitty, but that’s what project 2025 is going to do for Republicans.

    There will be no undoing of whatever happens whenever the next Republican becomes president. This is the last chance for politics to save us from that reality. We can sacrifice a few longstanding norms, knowing the risks. Or we can watch Republicans shatter all norms including the few we were trying to protect.














  • What discrepancy?

    Are you implying that the presence of any homeless people in New England invalidates the idea that consistently favorable weather leads to a higher ratio of homeless people living in an area?

    Probably also matters long term vs short term. When someone first becomes homeless, it usually happens where they were already living regardless of the weather. Over time, people may move to where it is more comfortable to sleep outside.

    So, all cities have new homeless people plus some that just never leave. And then warm areas have new homeless people plus the long term homeless people who risked traveling to get to warmer temperatures.
