I just read a headline about the elderly 'greying on the streets without housing and the elderly being hit with the economic turndown, so I'm somewhat puzzled about housing for those coming into our country.
On the other hand, the US/NATo causes this inflow because of intruding into other country politics and overthrowing elected leaders, (as happened in Ukraine 2014) which turns the county into chaos.
All the misery we experience is caused by politicians and their influencers.
