Living on the street is not a right.

[EvilCat Breath]

BS. Blame the victims, hater dupe.... They would prefer low income housing.

The evidence is that many would not. They prefer the freedom of the streets. Many even turn down temporary shelter.

What do you suggest be done with them?

Warehouse them against their will and give them all the free drugs they want.

[Arlette]

How do you suggest we get rid of the Homeless? Use Jonathan Swift's suggestion?

Reads like that is what the author of the OP is suggesting

To the drug addicted or mentally ill homeless there's no difference between any low income housing and shelters. The same kind of people can be found at both. While we do need affordable housing, there are more housing regulations that contribute to that then any other reason.

And a real mental health system

I agree, you need help.

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.

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.

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.

and tax the rich for crying out loud. And support Ukraine, crazy brainwashed functional Nazi Putinists

 

[Mac-7]

Welcome to GOP World, next time try taxing the rich and investing in America like low income housing. Thanks for the worst inequality upward mobility homelessness and poverty ever anywhere in the modern world by far. Super Duper.

why should taxpayers provide housing for drug zombies?

The homeless should be interned in drug rehab clinics still they dry out

Of course they haven't had sixty votes except for about three weeks in the middle of another GOP corrupt deregulation world depression, brainwashed functional moron- PASSED O-CARE. I have an idea, stop voting for lying scumbag POS mega rich GOP swine and change the damned channel.....

Tax the rich again and invest in America again, brainwashed functional moron hater dupe.... In this case low income housing and an actual mental health system for a change. Idiot.

 

[Burgermeister]

there are public health concerns about homelessness that i think need addressing.

isn't the conservative position that the government has no authority to help these people and that the government has no duties towards public health??

Ask Gavin Newsome, Nancy Pelosi, and London Breed. Don't worry about conservatives.

 

[Burgermeister]

What's the alternative? There are homeless people. Where do they go?

The good old days -

Ah...so this thread is really a cover for supporting Putin and Russia. Got it.

Regan?

Again, just an excuse to support Putin and Russia.

 

[LordBrownTrout]

Where will they go then?

You should ask newsom. He cleansed them from the streets when xi came to town. Had the crowd waving chinese flags. He's all yours.

Drug zombies are losers who belong in drug rehab hospitals not on the street or in government housing
