I live and work in a purple community in West Michigan (Lowell) and there's a handful of homeless living out of their cars around town. NEVER would have seen that in years past but the orange fuckstick and his minions have brought it on and it'll get worse before it gets better. I sold real estate and taught school for 25 years but found myself vastly underemployed so I took a job driving a bus at $22/hour. Not glamorous but it pays the bills and funds my retirement for now. Times are tough and we all sure as hell know why.
