Housing Authority agencies are fully funded enough by the state and federal from the allocated housing budget money to immediately rehousing displaced people but rather they choose to abuse their powers and to suffer the most vulnerable in our communities. They prefer for people to continue staying homeless unfairly while they enrich each other with the money meant to use to immediately rehouse people. Housing Authority agencies have turn the unfortunate homelessness of people as a beneficial business for them were as long as people are homeless, it is good business for them because their agencies will continues receiving taxpayers' money meant to immediately rehouse people to stop the human suffering of homelessness and use it to enrich their pockets.
