"A proposal by New York City’s Department of Homeless Services aims to free up space in local homeless shelters by sending single adults back to the last place they lived, lest they risk being forcibly removed from shelters. If there’s a problem with space at the person’s previous location, the DHS will provide furniture or even help rearrange the space to create more room."

Right-o. Because obviously people who are homeless are too dumb and are just abandoning perfectly lovely homes.

Even better: “Shelter applicants who can’t provide documents proving they are homeless would also be ineligible.”
