FROM ALL OF THE JOB AND RECRUITING FAIRS AND EVENTS, I HAVE PARTICIPATED IN, THE DATA AND FIGURES OF THE GROWING HOMELESS POPULATION, DOES NOT MATCH WITH WHAT CERTAIN PUBLIC OFFICIALS ARE GIVING US IN DATA RESEARCH NUMBERS.
THERE ARE ALL TYPES OF SOCIAL AND ECONOMIC AND HEALTH, MENTAL AND PHYSICAL AND HOUSEHOLD BUDGETARY ISSUES THAT ARE CAUSING A CONSTANT GROWTH OF AGING AND FRESHLY YOUNG HOMELESS PEOPLE. WE ARE LIKE “HIDDEN 3RD WORLD COUNTRIES” IN A LOT OF A SITUATIONS.
SOME OF THE MAIN CONTRIBUTORS TO VETERANS AND CIVILIAN HOMELESSNESS:
#1. COMPUTER ALGER-ISMS; think of “The Terminator FILMS/Movies”…The Terminators “Do NOT CARE” WHO/WHAT YOU ARE! AND NEITHER DOES THE ONLINE JOBS COMPANIES’ “KEY WORDS AND ALGER-ISMS” DRIVEN SOFTWARE AND SCORING SYSTEMS. IF YOU APPLY AND YOUR “SCORE” FOR THE EXACT WORDS OF YOUR RESUME/APPLICATION, DOES “NOT” TOTALLY/EXACTLY “MATCH”, WHAT THE COMPUTER PROGRAM/SOFTWARE IS SEEKING FOR THAT EXACT JOB POSITION; THEN YOU GET “EJECTED/DENIED/KICKED-OUT” OF THE 1ST LEVEL AND YOUR INFO IS NOW, SPREAD THROUGHOUT THE SYSTEMS…YOU MAY NEVER GET PAST THOSE 1ST LEVEL OF “TERMINATOR-ALGER ISMS” AGAIN!??
I do really “LOVE/have a passion” for Technology, and Sci-Fi, Futuristic New Discoveries, but on the other Hand, I really “hate” the “TERMINATOR ISMS” , and how we, Humans have/are allowing Computers to make decisions, that Humans used to make. I could elaborate further, on this one, but lets move on to #2.
#2. Catastrophic Medical Events: the Constant “Certain Political Party’s” Chopping off of the “Health Care Bills/Acts”, some call Obama Care, aka Affordable Care Act, is creating more bankrupt families and people, than ever before, simply because more people, within the populations, need access to affordable Health Care, “BUT”, there is always a Certain group of People who seem to “Fight Vigorously” against HUMANITY/HEALTH CARE TREATMENT, FOR ALL AMERICANS: “GREED/HATRED/IGNORANCE/LACK of EMPATHY/EVILNESS/LACK OF SPIRITUAL MORALS”; all contribute to policies against the poor families and people of America.
#3. Lack of Affordable Housing: Again, “GREED” within the Basic Housing Markets, vastly contribute to lack of Affordable Housing and Lower Income Housing “Villages/Communities”, simply cannot be built fast enough, and their “approval processes” really “Stink”! How can the Median Household for moderate living in Nevada be $58,000 expectation, yet People are expected to live off “P/T” income that does NOT equal/add up to household incomes of $20,000 Annually…”FUZZY MATH” says that whenever a Household has over approx. $1,900 per month, that Household is “NOT Eligible” for “ANY Help” and or Subsidies…last time I did the math, $1,900 per Month x/times 12 Months=$22,800; well below the needed average/moderately needed household income. IF you have Half a Brain, Well, Sorry, But You get the Point!!!
Those are the Main “BIG-3” causes, for this Article, but we may get into the Mental Health, and Addictions Issues at a later time, along with other Factors.
BOT, in Conclusion for this Article: How do SOOO many hiring/firing local Managers of Corporations “get away with” all kinds of “Discriminatory practices??”
the EEOC either is soooo Overwhelmed, Under Staffed, Under Funded, or Does NOT care enough, That “Hidden/Subtle/Sneaky/wrong” ways to Discriminate for all kinds/types of Reasons and Ways, keeps on Happening, despite the EEOC.

Job seekers confront ageism
Updated 1 day ago
Despite laws protecting against age discrimination, the U.S. jobs report continues to show signs of bias in hiring. While young adults are most likely to be unemployed, for example, older Americans are most likely to be stuck in long-term joblessness. Both groups may be contending with managers who implicitly or explicitly say they’re too young or too old for certain positions. LinkedIn members shared their stories about facing age bias during their job hunts.

Last year, my 11-1/2 year assignment with a Fortune 10 company ended. A 30+ year marketing career came to a screeching halt as a result of departmental reorganization. And while I firmly believe that age was a contributing factor to my being “displaced”, age was also very much a contributing factor to my landing the next opportunity, which was the opportunity of a lifetime. Think of the movie “The Intern” starring Robert DeNiro and you get the idea of what I did for nearly five months as an “executive apprentice”. And LinkedIn played an important role as the CEO of the company had posted that his company was piloting a program for the summer where the major requirement was that in order to be considered, a candidate had to have a minimum of 30 years of experience! Below is link to presser how the company communicated the experience to the business community and other stakeholders. Age withstanding, this experience has well positioned me to #RewireNotRetire. This is what is necessary today in having career longevity so many of us desire. http://www.globenewswire.com/news-release/2018/10/12/1620506/0/en/Sparks-Honey-Launches-First-Of-Its-Kind-Apprentice-Program-A-Testament-to-Its-Commitment-to-Diversity.html
