Thought this might be of interest to Heidegger readers, particularly readers 
of Building/Dwelling/Thinking.

Darby,

Homelessness cannot be cured by housing.  Houselessness can be ameliorated if
the government  provided housing for everyone that wanted and didn't want it.
The government cannot provide a home.  Individuals have to make their own home.
Some decide to make their home a park bench.  But why should the government
provide shelter rather than other material goods?  Why do you value it so much
if it is evident that others do not?  It seems that most homeless value their
homes, which is most often a nice bench or a prime spot on a heating grate.
