Undercounting the Homeless in Dallas-Plano

A Dallas radio station reported today that last night their was a metro area-wide count of the homeless for government purposes and that the number was approx. 600 seriously underestimating the actual number of homeless people.

When I flew into DFW recently and travelled to Plano to begin living in a tent, I discovered that it is challenging to find a place to safely put up a tent. Plano is a community sprawling north extending the greater Dallas area with expensive cloned homes with mal-designed steep roofs designed better for snow country roofed with asphalt shingles rather than solar photon collecting tiles. Little space is allowed to remain for wildlife (actually about none) though nice bike paths and green spaces are planned to let the entire community be a sort of poverty free middle class slum without homeless people, cheap motels or anything that would upset the aloof milieu. Homeless people may still be away from urban centers and living more like coyotes at the edges of town where they may dash in to try to find work occasionally.

In my humble opinion the actual number of homeless people in the Dallas/Plano area is more like 2000. Counters of homeless people only find the ones that are easy to locate rather than those that have some sense and try to remain out of sight of the violent automobile driving goons that prey upon the homeless to alleviate their sense of inferiority.

In the environmmentally mal-adaptive suburban sprawl of cloned 400,000 dollar clone homes even their human servo-units have adopted the ethos of purging poverty and environment to the shadows, and purging any unregulated tree caused shadows.
