Homelessness in Hollywood a horror show all its own

The homeless population in California long ago reached crisis levels and despite billions of dollars being spent on the problem at state and local levels, the crisis only seems to get worse. The Los Angeles Times just reported that homelessness jumped 9% in L.A. County, and 10% in the city itself.
