The controversy surrounding the handling of the homelessness crisis in America has reached the Supreme Court, which is hearing a case on the issue that originated in Grants Pass, Oregon. Michael Shellenberger, an author, and David Ambroz, who was homeless during childhood, debate the issue on "Elizabeth Vargas Reports." Shellenberger says many people blame homelessness on poverty and housing, but don't address the root causes — drug addiction and untreated mental illness. Ambroz argues that the policy in Oregon essentially recriminalizes homelessness as if some people have a choice, and adds that the vast majority of those experiencing it do not fit the stereotype.
