Living on the street is not a right.

Ask Gavin Newsome, Nancy Pelosi, and London Breed. Don't worry about conservatives.
Of course the Conservatives are the ones who have been in charge of federal giveaway to the rich tax rates for 40 years Giving us the worst inequality poverty and homelessness ever anywhere by far in the modern world- lying GOP mega rich swine....and silly dupes like YOU.

So interesting to hear a lib explain the way they erroneously connect dots. FYI, CA has the highest tax rate in the country and worst homeless problem.

Since they treat the homeless with some dignity and respect and have to pay the difference from the crap GOP federal BS giveaway to the rich, ignoramus dupe.... And have great weather for it that attracts them from across the country.....

Like when they cleared them all out in a day in preparation for Xi Jinping's s visit? Such dignity and respect. Go walk through a homeless camp and tell everyone how dignified it is.
 
We all have rights. But camping on the street isn't in the constitution. Spreading disease and public usage of narcotics, either. Neither is enabling mental illness, laziness or addiction.

Tempus fugit
Is the law on adoption in the constitution?

No problem. Jack up those taxes and you can afford to do something about this issue. You might even make a dent in a couple decades.

You see for a long time Federal Funding went to Mental Hospitals. Places where we could send people to get the help they needed. The Feds cut those funds finally eliminating them under Reagan. We couldn’t afford it. It was a problem for the States to address.

The States didn’t address it. They didn’t want to spend the money either. So to get back where we were in 1972, it would take at least twenty years. Time to train enough doctors and nurses to actually staff the facilities.

Just throw them in jail? Ok. We can do that. But jails are overcrowded. Who will we let go to make room for these homeless? Which murderer, rapist, robbers, or drug dealers do we let go?

Build more prisons? Ok. We have about one percent of our population Ickes up or on probation/parole now. Doubling that with the homeless will mean spending twice what we do now. Not sure that’s a great plan.

Give them homes? Republicans rant and rage at rent controls and spending money on homeless. So I’m not sure your party is going to support giving people, especially ones you call lazy, homes.

So what solution didn’t I consider? What do you suggest? A brownian motion of homeless always being run out of one town to the next? Busses running hither and thither carrying homeless to dump them on the next town?

I actually give money or food to homeless people whenever I can and donate money each year to charity to help those in need. It's a shame you feel the way you do. I was homeless once in my life, now I have a Master's degree and am a lot more fortunate then I once was. My wife and her sister have been homeless before. Have a little compassion for the poor and homeless, you have no idea what they go without ever being homeless yourself. If you don't like them sleeping on the street why don't you let one of them stay with you in your home for a while. Many of my family members including myself have opened their homes to the homeless before.


Matthew 42-46 " For I was hungry and you gave me no food, I was thirsty and you gave me no drink, 43 I was a stranger and you did not welcome me, naked and you did not clothe me, sick and in prison and you did not visit me.’ 44 Then they also will answer, saying, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or naked or sick or in prison, and did not minister to you?’ 45 Then he will answer them, saying, ‘Truly, I say to you, as you did not do it to one of the least of these, you did not do it to me.’ 46 And these will go away into eternal punishment, but the righteous into eternal life."

Mother Terasa was a questionable at best, thanks for that reminder.

Well CA is so expensive and has a higher tax rate because everyone wants to live there because of how beautiful it is. All kinds of rich people go to California and drive the price of everything up including taxes. The middle and lower class cannot compete with the rich in California so many get driven into homelessness.

I truly think the best way to solve our nations homelessness problem would be to become a socialist or communist nation. Ideally communism would provide housing for all and jobs for all.

 
Regan defunded both INS and mental health funding in the 80's. Bring back federally funded institutions that help the mentally ill or addicts. Stop giving away billions to Ukraine, for starters and use it on AMERICANS.
When the ACLU complains about the mentally ill being locked up against their will tell them "shove it. We tried it your way".
 
Wow, this is hard. Stop giving away billions to Ukraine. Close the border, defund states that give sanctuary to illegals, and bring back federally funded mental health institutions. That seems the most humane and sincere thing I can say.

takes too long. The problem needs immediate attention.
 
It's right there in the preamble of the US Constitution:

"We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America."

Allowing people to live on the streets, to use drugs, to sell their bodies, and to spread disease and commit crimes in no way promotes the general welfare of American citizens, nor does it insure domestic tranquility. In other words, it's not your body when you're abusing it in ways that are detrimental to the health and safety of the general population. As far as I'm concerned, the same thing applies to abortion, for that matter. American citizenship shouldn't start at birth. Even the unborn would have been citizens in the eyes of our founders.
Thanks for the worst poverty anywhere, dupe. Tax the rich again
