City staff are exploring authorizing a "tent city," a move that would make the Beach the first community in the state to sanction a homeless encampment - if the City Council approves the idea.
Mayor Will Sessoms, however, said he doesn't support it.
"I just don't see it happening," Sessoms said. "I could not recommend it because I do not want to encourage homelessness. I want to work to keep people from being homeless."

Out of curiosity, anyone think that these Obamaville residents will be able to finance their swanky new cribs with a collateralized debt obligation or some other wonderfully well thought out financial instrument?
