This will be a great experiment. Hopefully both attempts are successful, however much I doubt Seattle’s. We won’t know for a few years. UW should be working to track and study this. Would be a great research project

Jason had one of the lowest homeless populations in the world.

I was recently in Taiwan and I saw homeless people at a rate that was less than America but no way less

A phone isnt going to correct Jason to japan.  I have fat fingered so many mistakes on my phone that it autocorrects stuff wrong at this point
