Californian experience to cater Homelessness

The article “Trump’s big idea to fix homelessness is to do what California is already doing — sort of” is written by Liam Dillon and Benjamin Oreskes ADDIN ZOTERO_ITEM CSL_CITATION {"citationID":"zoXKe2Xm","properties":{"formattedCitation":"(\\uc0\\u8220{}Trump\\uc0\\u8217{}s Big Idea to Fix Homelessness Is to Do What California Is Already Doing \\uc0\\u8212{} Sort Of\\uc0\\u8221{})","plainCitation":"(“Trump’s Big Idea to Fix Homelessness Is to Do What California Is Already Doing — Sort Of”)","noteIndex":0},"citationItems":[{"id":240,"uris":["http://zotero.org/users/local/s8f0QVnP/items/MT7M8VIE"],"uri":["http://zotero.org/users/local/s8f0QVnP/items/MT7M8VIE"],"itemData":{"id":240,"type":"webpage","title":"Trump's big idea to fix homelessness is to do what California is already doing — sort of","container-title":"Los Angeles Times","abstract":"President Trump’s plan to get homeless people off L.A. streets is to eliminate layers of regulation to make it easier and cheaper to build more housing.

The article was recently published in the Los Angeles Times. The authors believe that President Trump’s initiatives to DE regularize some essential requirements in building housing for homeless people might are contradictory to his initiatives in other states. The authors have widely criticized the present regime, while citing examples of what they have done with the immigrants. They have went ahead to criticize the polices under consideration for Californian housing sector by the Council of Economic Advisors under the Trump regime. They believe that by putting forward a tailored plan to build affordable housing fit in the interests of the present regime, as reflected in a previous article ADDIN ZOTERO_ITEM CSL_CITATION {"citationID":"VSUB3tFc","properties":{"formattedCitation":"({\\i{}What Trump Once Understood About Homelessness - The Atlantic})","plainCitation":"(What Trump Once Understood About Homelessness - The Atlantic)","noteIndex":0},"citationItems":[{"id":242,"uris":["http://zotero.org/users/local/s8f0QVnP/items/REZ5PX7L"],"uri":["http://zotero.org/users/local/s8f0QVnP/items/REZ5PX7L"],"itemData":{"id":242,"type":"webpage","title":"What Trump Once Understood About Homelessness - The Atlantic","URL":"https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2019/09/trump-homelessness-california-roundups/598252/","accessed":{"date-parts":[["2019",9,19]]}}}],"schema":"https://github.com/citation-style-language/schema/raw/master/csl-citation.json"} (What Trump Once Understood About Homelessness - The Atlantic). For the authors, the only viable solution to meeting the housing need in California is to reduce the local zoning rules in California.

I believe that housing remains a pressing task for the local authorities in my state. I have seen people facing challenges. The reason for such challenges are the unnecessary regularizations which force people to consider different options, rather than building their own house. Irrespective of the political beliefs and material interests, the political regimes must come together to make it feasible, for the Californians to build their own residence. I think the state where housing remains a persistent challenge, the state representatives or any other stake holder must not indulge into political rhetoric, since it just invites skepticism. I have observed that despite some welcoming initiatives being offered by the Federal government, the authors have tried to relate the housing problem with a broader problem of immigrants. I think such manner of opinion writing must be carped, as they create hurdles in law making and influence things in negative manner.
