A few weeks ago, I talked about Elvis Summers and his work building tiny homes for the homeless in Los Angeles.

Today I sat down with him to discuss his project.

It shouldn't surprise you to learn his biggest obstacle is corruption that starts at the top of the local government.

In fact, he's even had to wear a bulletproof vest on the job!

Once again, we have living proof that the state is never a good solution to any problem. Government officials will never care about solving homelessness as long as they can use it as an electoral platform and a source of funding.
