Go figure! No 1 cause of homelessness in the land of fruits and nuts is lack of affordable housing! So a doctor’s script is going to fix that? With the insanity in the state house, I can see where they get a good supply of the number 4 cause, which is mental illness! These clowns have graduated from fruit and nut classification!

This “medication” will be administered rectally - to the taxpayer.

I can’t imagine how this will play out. Aren’t social workers already working with the homeless who want help? They know what housing is available. This is another hare-brained Newsome idea.

I get depressed on beautiful summer days when I have to work and thus unable to ride my motorcycle. Perhaps my doctor could write a prescription to get paid days off in the summer for my mental health.

The Sanctuary Sycophants, their families, their friends should be forced to share or give up their homes to the invaders. After all, invaders deserve a nice place to stay.

Years ago on The Tonight Show (Johnny Carson era) it might have been Gary Shandling who said, “It’s only rich people who get hospitalized for exhaustion. You never hear about a poor person coming into a hospital saying, “Give me a bed! I’m exhausted.”

This is another hare-brained Newsome idea.

KittyKares, this concept may not be well known but it has been in the NWO hopper for decades. When an element of one of their UNrecognized by US concepts is discussed publicly by a politician you can consider it an announcement that a majority of people living in the U.S. has been found ready to accept the realization of another program of 'Change' the NWO uses politicians to herald.

Yep, exactly where do you go to get that prescription filled?

Same as they do with section 8 housing now.
No money down and a small co-pay after the taxpayers pay 90 % or so of the rent.
Same stuff, just changing the names.

So it’s going to be covered by your healthcare plan?

You said it’s in the NWO hopper. I can’t quite figure out what would be the purpose. The problem won’t be fixed any differently; e.g., what difference does it ultimately make whether a homeless person is given a dwelling prescribed by a physician or arranged by a social worker. Is it to say that there are no social problems only medical problems?
