Why end the homelessness crisis when you can criminalize homelessness and have an endless supply of slaves to produce "proudly made in america" things for 15cts an hour ? If you think the bourgeoisie isn't that cynical, I have a bridge to sell you. It's the people who caused the fentanyl epidemic by getting regular folks hooked on opioids for profits we're talking about. Who do you think's causing the homelessness crisis in the first place ?

Not in my backyard. Also; not in my town; not in my city; not in my district; not in my county; not in my state; not in my country.
This whole place is going to hell.
You mean we could do something that helps? I don't believe you. /s
Now if only we could solve the problem of self righteousness, there would be peace on earth.
Nice. Hope it works out.
there's still some homeless people but very little. it's hard to make sure absolutely no one ends up homeless
I really wish things like this can happen in the US. With the amount of money we spend on stupid shit, we could more than end homelessness and then some.
We could end it many times over.
UBH!
(Universal Basic Housing)
All these Universal Basic * programs seem to work, and the only things holding them back are rich people not wanting to be taxed, and the people they have brainwashed into supporting them.
But people might be lazy without the constant looming threat of exposure and humiliation.
It might be interesting to see. Let's try giving people the basic necessities for once, and see how things work out!
idk, America seems to push Universal Basic Gun Owning pretty hard. Can't say that it's helping anyone tho.
Hah! I almost wish that were true, just so more poor leftists would arm themselves. Guns (and ammo) are fucking expensive and there are no subsidies.

Here in the UK we just pretend it's not a problem by calling it a lifestyle choice.
I see that more and more in the US, people saying things like "what can we do to help them, most homeless people want to live that way" like wtf?
Because of the way media seems to work these days.
There is no denying that a small percentage of homeless people are too far gone to help and would rather live that way for whatever reason.
Any person with some critical thought should be able to remove them from the discussion and focus on the vast majority of homeless people that can be helped, where the media will just show this one person and be like see there isn’t any point.
The same can be seen for peaceful protests. We have 10,000 people protesting peacefully and one lunatic being violent. We all know what the news will show the next day.
That's the problem. They find one or two of the people who are homeless by choice and use them as an example as if that's normal.
