A problem everywhere. Here in Vermont, 500-1000 people were recently evicted from subsidized housing as state program expired. Some are families with small children. They are living in tents. As the weather turns colder (folks in Montana must face the same dilemma), there is no place for them to go. Even when there is shelter, they are often chaotic environments with folks experiencing mental health or addiction issues. What drives me crazy is the people who get mad at the homeless. Helping people get back on their feet and become self sufficient is a much better goal. Fining or jailing them is pointless. The cost of housing is a problem here in Vermont as well. Median house prices are close to $400K. The average income for a single Vermonter is

Because your state politicians think it's worth the time and effort to allow legal prostitution in Burlington and making sure everyone has the right to smoke weed. And because they advocate smoking, they force everyone to have health insurance even if they cannot afford to. The politicians raise taxes but live in garnish homes. Vermont like many states in the north are being vacated for states that have no state tax and low property taxes. Vermont is a pretty state to live in but go luck affording it.

@@stpaulisland Legal prostitution? Not in VT. Expensive for sure. It's one of our big problems as I mentioned.

I now live in Reno Nevada I used to live in Bozeman in the '80s and of course that stuff wasn't going on back then, and my dad and mom worked for the university but there's no work in Bozeman even for me I went back to school and said screw this wasn't working, and there's no industry except ranching farming tourism because you got Yellowstone Bozeman has nothing to offer except University and that's about it, it looks like it's still the same but now I see all of the apartments and all that other jazz they've bought up farmland and ranchland, and I follow a guy out of I think it's Great falls and he's a rancher and he's talking about what's going on with the ranching community it's not good none of it's good he's going down into Texas where a community is going to lose all their homes because Houston wants to flood their homeland, I couldn't believe what I was seeing His name is Trinity He has a KZbin and Instagram and Facebook page, and he talks about the stuff that's going on, there's a young man that I follow out of Wyoming and his family is been in that area for over a hundred years, and it's really sad to see what they did to Bozeman that's an historical community and I love Bozeman, but what they've done to it and allowing that to go on no, some people choose to do homeless stuff, cuz those RVs are not cheap, and I know that we have more tent cities here than we have RVs but some of those RVs are very expensive and I'm like going yeah you're choosing to live like that but you don't want to pay the rent in our space, and I can guarantee you they're not paying their monthly on a on all of that so they're staying hidden sad sad sad what's going on.

It’s a beautiful area but my gosh not what it should be looking like. The weird part is that the city thinks it’s ok.. I’m a single healthy male and didn’t feel right, it would be interesting to ask some of the tax payer elected officials to take evening walks with a young family through there.. Maybe do some good.. Nice to hear from you Johnny, hope today’s treating you well! Thanks👍👍👋
