    If you have proof of your claim, post it.
    Why would you? You're a chronic liar and troll. You don't even believe the asshole you see in the mirror every night before bed.


    I believe Christie because she's always been fair and honest. Unlike you whose honesty streak died long ago....probably by strangulation.

    Hey! That's not fair to the homeless. Not every homeless person is a raving lunatic. Some are just drug addled morons who are interested in getting their next fix. Others are just stupid and lazy.

    Correct, which is why I said "chronically homeless".

    I can see you aren't much of a reader, Chief, since you obviously didn't read either of the two links I've provided.

    Many chronically homeless are drug addicts, idiots, lazy mofo's etc. They don't necessarily have to be crazy too, but it helps...

    Exactly.

    San Trancisco is paying $16.1 million to shelter homeless people in 262 tents placed in empty lots around the city where they also get services and food — a steep price tag that amounts to more than $61,000 per tent per year.

    The city has created six tent sites, called “safe sleeping villages,” since the beginning of the pandemic to get vulnerable people off crowded sidewalks and into places where they have access to bathrooms, three meals and around-the-clock security.

    The annual cost of one spot in one site is 2½ times the median rent for a one-bedroom apartment in San Trancisco.

    The stats prove they are primarily mentally ill as the links you didn't read prove.

    Wages are not keeping up with inflation! The cost of putting a roof over one's head is pricing many people out of the market.

    It's not just drug addicts and the mentally disabled out there without a roof over their head. Sure that is a lot of it, but I know people that became homeless due to a divorce. I have seen people become homeless just because they were laid-off beyond their own control. I have seen people become homeless just because of a medical condition.

    Here in Texas, many are becoming homeless- just because their homes or apartments were flooded due to the recent Ice Storm- and are now unlivable. I am talking about many thousands of people are being forced out of their apartments as they are either being razed or repaired. THEY HAVE NOWHERE TO GO!

    Many people are now homeless because their credit is ruined. And many people's credit went bad because of an illness, lay-off, or divorce!

    There is more to it than DRUG ADDICTION and Mental Illness- WHICH YOU ADMITTED! THANKS!
    A large portion (in San Francisco) of the homeless is drug addicted and mentally ill. But yes, there is also an element that is simply down on their luck (but for the grace of God go I).

    Housing is another subject and one I’ve spoken about quite a bit. California, and the Bay Area, has under built new housing for 40 years. Thus the costs are astronomical. I was reading about the price increases in Texas led in part by California transplants. Texas at least, generally speaking, has a more pro development attitude and seems to build lots of new housing. It is definitely possible much more is needed.

    Singapore has worked wonders in homeless housing.

    !
    My rent last year only went up 2% because of covid. It had been going up 5-10% a year for 5 years.

    The texas thing was a once in a lifetime incident.

    People should not buy on credit. I never have.

    Lots of homeless men are victims of our anti-male child support laws. They are sick of working hard and then giving 70% of their salary to the ex knowing she will spend every penny on herself. They prefer being homeless and not giving her anything.

    When abortion was legalized in 1973 all forced child support by men should have ended.

    Well, then next time you are confronted by someone saying "It's a woman's right to choose..." Ask, Then why do men have to pay child support? You see, in normal contract law between two parties things don't go from one party having all the decision making to the other party suddenly being responsible. That is, if women alone get to decide if they have a child or an abortion then they alone are responsible for the result of that decision. The man is just a sperm donor.
