I don ' t know about Edinburgh , but I doubt this model would work in the US . Think of the hundreds of thousands of people who make minimum wage cleaning toilets , and put their money towards rent in a tiny , filthy shared studio apartment in a dangerous crime ridden neighborhood . This group of people would be incentivized to become homeless and qualify for this program . I ' m sure the program is a dream come true for the 20 people who get in . But in the big picture , you can ' t end homelessness by rewarding it . Ok let the down votes begin . <| sep |> I ' ve only heard bad things since it released ! Glad someone enjoys it . If you had to give an unbiased review of the issues , could you tell me what they are ? <| sep |> glad my momma got me some pairs for christmas lmao
