In 1933, Hoovervilles ("Shanty Towns") were scattered across America. The Labor Statistics* show the number of unemployed in 1933 was about 13 million. Because the population has exponentially grown (although the percentage is much lower) the 2018 numbers show about 7 million unemployed. In short, we have only 6 million more people employed than at the depth of The Great Depression. And, now, a mere 7 million in the throes of potential or imminent homelessness.
