Super-Red Utah Slashes Homelessness 74% By Giving Away Homes

Let's try to think of some reasons why conservative Utah can do something conservative Kentucky can't. 

Because the reason certainly couldn't be that virtually no homeless people in Utah are black or brown. No, no racism in Kentucky, uh-unh.

Another reminder of how Utah conservatism is very, very different from Deep South conservatism: they started giving free housing to the homeless, and ended up cutting homelessness by 74 percent and saving money to boot.
