6. Even used, those aren't cheap
Though I suppose that over time it might save somemoney over renting.

Point is- most people that own those aren't without some means.

4. What happens is, when you let the whole infrastructure fall down
is people in the christian RW come along and CAPITALIZE on the situtation.

I lived in CA most of my life and I promise there are tons of homeless people. Whether this is a real shanty town I don't know but, there are tons of people to fill it, if it was!
