In all seriousness, the problem is incredibly simple: there is nowhere near enough residential units to support the population, and this is entirely due to the various municipalities complete unwillingness to allow anywhere near enough new residential units to be built.
Even Plan Bay Area is at least recognizing there is a problem, but their "resolution" to the housing crisis was simply to have a reduced deficit between projected net new job creation and new residential unit construction. In effect, saying that more people should be living sharing rooms, living in their RVs, cars, or just living without any shelter, at all.
I genuinely fear that there is a potential for increases in property crime, violent crime, and even civil unrest. When people are denied access to shelter, they become desperate and more likely to engage in violence.
