CNN's Fareed Zakaria Admits Homeless Problems Are Worst in Democrat-Run Blue Cities (VIDEO)

CNN’s Fareed Zakaria stated on HBO’s “Real Time” that the most severe homelessness problems are concentrated in blue cities and blue states. He suggested that the issue is not a lack of spending but rather an “over-privileging the rights of the homeless over the rights of the other 99.5%.” Zakaria contrasted cities like New York and Los Angeles with places like Miami, Houston, and Dallas, which he believes are more effective at building housing and thus have fewer homelessness issues.
