So like 1 in ~~50~~ 500 pll is homeless? That's crazy. Ther is not even a significant crisis or war directly affecting the US.

~~Edit: I can't read~~

Edit II : OK, reading was fine (on the first go) I just did my math with 1million = 100* thousand ... I am tired and have a cold, please excuse my many fumbles in this comment xD.

I think you're off by a factor of 10. 650k out of 330 million is about 1 in 500. It's still way too many people, don't get me wrong, just wanted to clarify.
