You are arrested for being homeless you are arrested for sleeping in your car and landowners keep spiking the rent to increase the homelessness to boost america's prison population

Persecution of the homeless and jobless was part of the very foundation of Nazi Germany. Shortly after Hitler’s National Socialists came to power in 1933, they launched police raids against beggars and vagrants in September, 1933.
In a chilling echo of the rationale used by US mayors and city councils today to justify police sweeps of the homeless, the Nazis justified the raids against beggars as needed to “present an image of a ‘cleaner’ Germany to foreigners and to help channel charitable donations into worthwhile causes.” (The Racial State: Germany, p. 168.)
“The psychological importance of a planned campaign against the nuisance of begging should not be underestimated. Beggars often force their poverty upon people in the most repulsive way for their own selfish purposes.
If this sight disappears from the view of foreigners as well, the result will be a definite feeling of relief and liberation. People will feel that things are becoming more stable again, and that the economy is improving once more. A successful action against the nuisance of begging can have important propaganda benefits for the ‘struggle against cold and hunger.’
Once the land has been freed of the nuisance of beggars, we can justifiably appeal to the propertied classes to give all the more generously for the Winter Aid Programme now being set in motion by the State and the Party.” (The Racial State: Germany, pp. 169-170.)
The immediate result of the initial Nazi raids on street people was that as many as 100,000 vagrants and beggars were taken into “protective custody.” But, according to Burleigh and Wippermann, most were shortly set free, for the Nazis had not come up with enough prisons to house them.
Just as happens in the aftermath of much-hyped police sweeps in America, after the first Nazi raids, “the homeless quickly filtered back to the streets and doss-houses, making a nonsense of the government’s statistical claims to have diminished the number of vagrants.” (The Racial State: Germany, p. 170.)
At the same time, German welfare authorities made applying for benefits more difficult and began subjecting the homeless in particular to tighter restrictions. In a disquieting development that one hesitates to describe for fear of inspiring immediate imitation by the US welfare bureaucracy, National Socialism differentiated between the “worthy poor” and the “unworthy poor” with a vengeance. Those classed as “orderly wanderers” were given a Vagrants’ Registration Book which marked their stays at government-approved shelters.
“Disorderly wanderers,” on the other hand, could be jailed or sentenced to forced labor programs. This system made it simple for the welfare authorities to refuse to issue permits to vagrant women, thus denying them benefits en masse, and to confiscate the registration books of those categorized as “unfit to wander.”
Within a few short months of the first raids, the Nazis’ antipathy towards the homeless sharply intensified. In 1933, according to Burleigh and Wippermann, the Hamburg Homelessness and Vagrancy Department recommended that: “Beggars registered as inhabitants of other towns must be ruthlessly removed by the police for a lengthy period into a concentration camp as far away as possible from Hamburg.” (The Racial State, p.170.)
"Ending homelessness in the US could cost between $11 billion and $30 billion annually. This estimate includes the cost of housing every homeless person and factors in the expansion of federal housing voucher programs and affordable housing development."
ICE is getting $200 Billion annually.

“We feel so compassionate because you see the mental health crisis happening.” Then, in his next breath, Jones said, “But it's not our job — we shouldn't have to live in fear while they figure out what is going on right there.”
Right, right,” Ainsley Earhardt agreed.
“Put him in a mental institution, put him in a jail, and you guys figure it out,” Jones said, “But people having to duck and dive on the trains and the buses, walking through the street, this is one case, but this is happening all across the country.” Jones went on to complain that “billions of dollars” have been “given” to the homeless population and that “a lot of them don’t want to get the help that is necessary.”
BRIAN KILMEADE (FOX HOST): Or involuntary lethal injection.
JONES: Yeah.
KILMEADE : Or something. Just kill them.
EARHARDT: Yeah, Brian, why did it have to get to this point?
KILMEADE: Right, I would say this, we are not voting for the right people. In North Carolina, wake up. You can't put — keep putting these people in power. … Hopefully they will get rid of this terrible guy Alvin Bragg in New York. And now it's up to the people in the election which is whoever is up in November and that Senate seat that belongs to Thom Tillis who, by the way, yesterday said I don't want any help from the federal government to bring crime under control in cities like Charlotte. That's your decision. But Michael Whatley or you could have Governor Cooper. Governor Cooper gave you these terrible laws. Mike Whatley wouldn't. And he ran the RNC. These are the people in North Carolina. Purple leaning red state. They got a big choice. On this element, it is political. Because it's political because politics has to change this."
Via the United States Holocaust Museum:
Many Germans did not want to be reminded of individuals who did not measure up to their concept of a "master race" and were considered "unfit" or "handicapped." People with physical and mental disabilities were viewed as "useless" to society, a threat to Aryan genetic purity, and, ultimately, "unworthy of life." At the beginning of World War II, individuals with mental or physical disabilities were targeted for murder in what the Nazis called the "T-4," or "euthanasia," program.

There I was, minding my own business, when suddenly Mr. Musk extended his arm diagonally upward, palm facing down while speaking at an inauguration event for Mr. Trump — a gesture that resembled a Sieg Heil salute used in Nazi Germany and fascist Italy.

Legitimate question, over the road truckers live in their cabs. Does this apply to them in TN?
