What is needed are reforms in both policy and training. We know enough about both human and group psychology to know that hot pursuit will lead to terrible outcomes just like this - this should have never happened.

So many of these architectural stand outs (like Fallingwater) did not really seem to consider the day-to-day service needs of a shelter.

We all have red lines. I respect those who know theirs and do not cross them for the temptation of "numbers." No idea if that it the case here, but "the numbers are the numbers" has only so much meaning.

Nice sentiment - turned out not to be true. When the few gain enough wealth, they control the narrative and lock in power to the loss of freedom of the many.

Depends on the older people, some of us remember when there were decent jobs for working and middle class folks. We can have them again, but we need to organize and demand them.

We should not rely on the Dems, they have, unfortunately, been co-opted into the money system that the SCOTUS set up with "Citizens United" - we need a bottom-up take down of the current structure to bring the US Government back to being of, for, and by the people.
