Summary

A recent Supreme Court decision has made it a crime to be homeless. David and Larry discuss what's behind that decision--and the effort by so many communities to jail people for the simple fact that they have no place to live. They discuss why that doesn't work, how it creates a neverending loop to nowhere, and what's a better way to approach the issue.
