Startling how the number increased when budget cuts forced closings of State Mental Hospitals.

Gonna have to agree with drafter... A lot of the homeless I see are in their 20s/30s... no way they're from that fiasco

"At this festive season of the year, Mr Scrooge, ... it is more than usually desirable that we should make some slight provision for the Poor and destitute, who suffer greatly at the present time. Many thousands are in want of common necessaries; hundreds of thousands are in want of common comforts, sir."
"Are there no prisons?"
"Plenty of prisons..."
"And the Union workhouses." demanded Scrooge. "Are they still in operation?"
"Both very busy, sir..."
"Those who are badly off must go there."
"Many can't go there; and many would rather die."
"If they would rather die," said Scrooge, "they had better do it, and decrease the surplus population."

Why is it when difficult issues and ideas are being discussed you get so uncomfortable?

I think you are very likely a closet liberal. Maybe? Just maybe...? Awwww..

It isn't difficult to understand why cities like NYC and SF are the way they are....they leave themselves wide open for it with their sanctuary cities who'll provide endless social welfare and pay for it with transfer of OTHER FOLKS WEALTH to re-distribute to the " needy ".


SO none? Already knew that though...and the question wasn't difficult, just yes or no.

so the rich do all the hard work and earn all the money...

the city of sf then takes that money and gives it to homeless people...

the homeless people then take that money and give it to crack dealers in exchange for drugs...

the crack dealers then sink those proceeds back into the economy by spending needlessly on things like expensive vehicles with flashy rims, big screen tv's, and fur coats...

sounds like trickle down economics to me...

Not a big believer in Christian charity, eh? Your choice. Homelessness is largely symptomatic of problems with us, our society. *ducks tomatoes
In all likelihood these people were once happy kids. So, given what we know about them now, if we'd the option, when they were still in the womb should they have been aborted? *guessing you said no there cause babies are more valuable than grownups, right? * cabbage now
Most cities have limited bus and train routes to their neighboring suburbs. The homeless are essentially trapped in urban areas.They have no insurance and depend on Medicaid/Medicare which is readily accepted at county (urban) hospitals. Also, city cops are more tolerant than suburban cops. So your suburb is safe. Take a deep breath.

Finally, is your reasoning so simplistic (aka Trumpian) that you actually think anything short of opening my doors to homeless folks makes it hypocritical for me to post an excerpt from A Christmas Carol signifying my sentiments? And btw, do you really have No compassion for these sick/destitute people? Again, your choice.
So my volunteering at soup kitchens, mentoring kids, and charitable donations don't count. Wait! You're not homeless, are ya?..Maybe I should reconsider...?...ok, nah. *locks door
Yeah, I don't know how to solve homelessness but I DO know it's not simple (Trumpian) and I sure as hell know I don't want YOU in charge of it especially now as I hear the actual gas chambers from Auschwitz are on sale at Ebay.
