It's OVER 5,000!
A family member manages FHA housing. A very soft hearted, warm, caring, empathetic, family member. That family member is overwhelmed with disgust at the fraud and abuse the beneficiaries perpetrate, and the difficulty in putting a stop to it. Literally beyond anger into almost despondency.
I’m generally fine with making able-bodied folks do *something* for benefits, but having a set time limit on eligibility for low-income housing seems like a recipe for increased homelessness. There’s a lot of people who aren’t technically disabled but will never be capable of making enough money to afford anything but this. I’d support reforming the program by building units that could house more people but perhaps require you to live in an apartment with other people?
