We’ll only solve this if everyone works together.

Not a federal issue. And from a state level unless you criminalize homelessness then what exactly is the solution?

Dear Arnold: take a look around you. How many illegals are living on the streets? If those illegals went home, how many apartments and low income housing would be available for those who really want housing? What would be left on the streets would be only druggies and those with mental problems. Then you could get those remaining people treatment.

You approach a problem by resolving the easy part first.

Those were fun times here on Free Republic. We all had some lively debates.

Is that what you call them? I call them crucifixions if you were not a Trumpette and stuck with your beliefs.

Oh well, that is behind us now until someone reads this and gets me banned again.

Bwhahahahahah

It’s amazing that these people who are screaming about a homeless crisis are usually the same people who want to legalize hard drugs which will create more drug addicted,mentally ill people who will be so deranged that they would prefer to live on the street.

Wonder what Schwarzenegger is up to? Don’t trust him as far as I can throw him which is about zero inches.

Yes, and this is what the crisis is: Western Civilization is in an advanced state of decay.

Can decadence be reversed once it has afflicted a civilization? President Trump and his supporters think it can, that America can be pulled back from the brink of destruction and sent soaring once again to unprecedented heights of ascendancy.

This is the meaning of "Make America Great!" and "The Best Is Yet To Come" and "The party's over; I'm going to clean up Washington!"

President Trump believes in America and the possibility of overcoming the Decadence of Western Civilization enough to risk everything--a considerable amount, in his case!--to save the USA from destruction.

All benevolent people will give him their support.

MAGA!
THANK YOU, PRESIDENT TRUMP!
WE SHALL OVERCOME!
GOD BLESS AMERICA!

Get energetic about deporting illegals, and California’s housing problem gets fixed real quick.

“ Except that he is BUYING the ERRONEOUS story that the problem is high home prices. The problem is drugs and metal illness.”

The primary problem is high home prices. I’m not discounting drug addiction or mental disease, that’s another leg on the stool. People never talk about how Chinese money, fleeing Communist China, has hyper-inflated West Coast real estate. There are a lot of homes sitting empty owned by Chinese nationals.

He didn’t start it. He temporarily brought a modicum of sanity to California’s budgeting. It didn’t last. It couldn’t. Now it’s worse than ever, and bound to get much worse.

Now just a cotton pickin’ minit here. Let’s be fair. If it were a Stalinist $hithole, he would have all the homeless rounded up, shoot those who can’t work and transport those who could to Alaska for slave labor. It’s an anarchist $hithole, and sooner or later, anarchy will lead to either right-wing dictatorship, or Stalinist dictatorship, but there is no way it can remain as it is.

Having insufficient funds to buy a house, the frustrated would-be homesteader would then hang out on the streets, defecating on the sidewalk and throwing discarded heroine needles every which way as tent cities became ubiquitous. Anything rather than rent./s

Do you even SEE these people in the tents? You can see with your own eyes that they are obviously mentally ill or on drugs.

Give Stalin his due. He didn’t bother with no steenking votes. He just counted them his own special way. As for federal largesse, yes, there was a work program right near the North Pole called Kolyma, and they weren’t making toys for Santa.

Yes I have and with those people drugs are a huge problem. I am talking about the working homeless living out of their cars or living with friends and relatives or in homeless shelters.

Trust me, the majority of homeless people do not sleep on the street.

With the billions upon billions upon billions upon billions of dollars the US taxpayers have spent year after year after year directed at homelessness, now its a crisis. NO MORE!

You hit the nail on the head. The more you spend, the worse it gets, because corrupt SOBs want the gravy train to keep going. Like putting out a fire with gasoline.
