First, you get rid of the welfare. freebie and ‘look the other way’ magnets that draws these people in. And you get rid of ‘sanctuary cities.’ Deport the illegal aliens.
Set up tent cities (tent barracks) on the outskirts of town. Enforce the vagrancy laws. Round them up and take them to the tent city. Delouse them and clean them up and into clean clothes.
‘Splain the rules to them. Anyone trying to leave the camp without a pass gets a night in the box. Crapping on the floor or ground or anywhere but the crapper gets a night in the box. Skipping a work detail gets a night in the box (work? yup, everybody works!). Wearing dirty clothes gets a night in the box. Drugs, alcohol, weapons or other contraband gets a night in the box. Fighting gets a night in the box.
They build, clean and maintain their camp and grounds. They cook, and serve chow and clean up afterwards. They do laundry and whatever has to be done in a camp full of residents. Even standing watches. Very few city employees should be needed. After a certain amount of ‘good time’ they become available for city work details, schooling, job training, etc. Counseling, classes in civic, family and individual responsibility, religious counseling, etc, avail. Prepare them for life on the outside.
America the sh*thole.
Toxic incentives are causing this mess... It’s why we have MORE homeless (as a percentage) than we did during the depression...
California Democrat state house think; Hey, let’s invite more illegals in so we can raise taxes in a false attempt to care for them, thus, putting them on the street.
the funny thing is if someone offers a real solution to this problem, a solid solution, they are going to be called, heartless, racist or worse. CA gov doesn’t was a solution, they want the problem to get worse and worse and eventually the US Gov will have to offer them money disguised as compassion and love.
How about we bus them into Mexico!
Rents are too damn high ! Thats a play out here
The rental market is a true capitalistic free market
When you have more people wanting to live in an area then there are available places Rents go up
Because of the weather here and generous social services people are attracted to California
Why the hell would anybody on the streets ever leave here?
Youve got to do gooders from hell running everything they think that theyre all saints!
Its beautiful schadenfraude to watch this actually
——Tents housing homeless ——
That is an oxymoron if there ever was one.
The people in question live in tents in what the newspaper called encampments. These people are not homeless, they have tent homes.
They are squatters who have erected their homes on public sidewalks and property.
The city governmnets are loathe to enforce non squatting laws because it will result in political death.
Trump needs to begin hauling in released illegals by the truck load
enforce the laws against sleeping on the street or in public places.
Give citizens tickets to give to beggars for meals at soup kitchens instead money.
No defecating or urinating in public
Enforce drug and public incarceration laws
Triage everyone to screen for mental illness.
Change mental illness laws to allow for custody in 100 bed centers around the state. No mental patient should be living on the street.
This not mentally ill or physically handicapped must find apace to live, apply for welfare, or get a job. No street living.
For every guilty finding double fine or jail time for subsequent offenses.
Aggressive enforcement of laws.
Authorities Haven’t a Clue What to Do About Skyrocketing Homelessness in California.
Reopen Alcatraz?
Duh! Apply more liberalism. California needs another million illegal immigrants, decriminalization of all drugs, lots and lots of economic regulations to punish the economically successful, and California especially needs to establish a new special super-committee to study the problem of homelessness
They know what to do; they just don’t want to do it.
The proper response to the LA homeless problem is for conservative states to pack buses with druggies and bums and send them to LA.
