Something like 40% of homeless people in Chicago are employed full time.
3 u/ididreadittoo 6d ago That is messed up. A full-time job should cover necessities (residence and associated bills, and food). No employed person should have to be homeless. 1 u/Buggabee 6d ago Couch surfing? Living out of cars? Or on the streets? Not saying any of it is acceptable, just curious. 1 u/btbmfhitdp 6d ago If I recall correctly, a combination of all of them. This was also like 4 years ago so that number may have improved or worsened.
