Some years ago I attended a local affordable housing meeting - before I was a city planning commissioner or elected council member. It was in the 10th year or so of a 5 year plan to eliminate homelessness. The room was full of city & county staff, non-profit executives & representatives, hospital administrators, non-profit housing developers, etc. I was the only person present who was not a paid mid or high level salaried employee. The whole system was a middle class make work program.
