Lmao, I should check. It's a small condo. Must be a combination of good insulation, electronics and lights giving off heat in a small space and they crank the heat up pretty high in the building so heat comes in through my door from the hallway. Other thing could be because my water heater is in a small closet inside my condo. But hey I'm not complaining, my heating bill last month was like $8 lol, guessing for the hot water from the water heater that I use.

I don't have a good answer or solution to that. But I don't think we should just write anyone and everybody off who is homeless and just assume that they are in the position that they are in because they don't want help or to help themselves. I'm sure there is a percentage of people who don't want to accept help as you say. But we should all still work together as a community to push politicians to provide resources to the homeless. Even if you don't care about the homeless, it's in everyone's best own interests to see these people improve their life situation and have housing so our city can thrive and grow and be prosperous. If we are all one community in this city we are only as strong as our weakest links/members. We should try to lift these people up because we all benefit from it as a whole. Just my personal opinion on the matter

I never turn on the heat, if anything it gets too hot even in the winter with heat off like 75-76 degrees. I have to open the window to get it down to 70-72 degrees. Even with window open it won't drop below 70. But Summers are insane, have to have AC blasting 24/7

This is absurd, and a sad state for the city. It's an endless cycle. Homeless people just continously keep moving from one spot to another. They get kicked out and move somewhere else. Literally what are they supposed to do? The State and City need to seriously address the issue and provide more funding, ask for federal help and funding. This is getting out of control. We need more shelters, beds, Affordable housing, temporary housing, and help these people get clean from drugs, get mental illness help, and help them find employment, provide job/skill training.

Why do people drive in the left lane on the highway doing 65-70, and refuse to move over into the right lane to let faster cars behind them pass? I wish people understood that the middle lane is for normal driving, left lane for passing, and right lane for taking an upcoming exit. If everyone abided by these simple things, their would be a lot less traffic and accidents.
