I find it interesting this person is more concerned that people visiting Eugene will see homeless people in the downtown area than the fact there are so many homeless people in the downtown area.  Maybe this person should stop traveling and take the money and donate it to affordable housing, counseling, drug rehab, job training....I'm embarrassed that we live in a country that does not have universal health care,  fair minimum wages, affordable housing and give tax breaks and subsidies to the wealthy corporate polluters and rapers of the Earth. I'm embarrassed at the adolescent and selfish mentality of so many adults in our country.
