When was the last time any capitalists were in charge of San Francisco? The socialist Dean is now in charge and wants to cut $100 million out of the police department. Perfect. That should work.

It’s like Republicans being blamed for Chicago yet no Republican has been near the wheel there in over 40 years.

No doubt Preston’s jack booted thugs have gotten all of the street trash signed up to vote.

“The biggest driver of why folks are on the street is because they lost their jobs, income or were evicted from their homes, usually for not being able to pay the rent."

Completely false. Homelessness is about mental illness and substance abuse. Economics plays almost no role in homelessness.

Just try to open up a new business in San Francisco and see how “capitalist” the thousands of state and local regulations are....and don’t forget to pay all your fees and taxes...but the poop in front of your door-step is free at least.

Lol.

Funny. We had capitalism long long before anywhere had any kind of problem with drug addled bums. Why is it that THE most left leaning/socialist city in the entire country is the one - of all places - that has been overrun by drug addled bums?

You simply don’t see this to anywhere near the same degree in small and medium sized towns those brutal capitalist red states. Its so odd. I just can’t figure it out.

Massive deflection. San Francisco is now a total civic failure. Huge budget deficits through abysmal mismanagement of elected officials failure to fulfill their civic obligations.

The state is the same. Huge budget shortfall in the coming year wiping out a 30-year surplus.

These ‘leaders’ are simply plundering their treasuries while casting blame anywhere they can to deflect from their malfeasance and corruption.

"San Francisco Supervisor Dean Preston claimed the city’s homelessness problems were “absolutely the result of capitalism,” and it was “counterproductive” to arrest people openly doing drugs."

The stupidity is strong in this one...

It’s partially about money because if the problem were to be solved, the grift, taxes and tax write-offs would dry up.

No more wonderful PR pictures and opportunities.

We have homeless because they want homeless.

Were one to compile a list of anti-capitalists, all the tyrannies of the last century would cluster together. It is only the academic rhetoric that makes them seem different, one from another.

Anti-capitalists? The Marxists and Leninists. The National Socialists. The Soviet Socialists. The Sino-socialists. The Khmer Rouge. Liberation theology socialists. Baath Party in Iraq and Iran. So many sister beliefs in anti-capitalism that the list continues well beyond there.

And, as we see, American Democrats now, showing their true colors.

Damn right, if they weren’t able to mooch from the capitalists, the homeless would have to get jobs.

Homelessness you see all over this country under bridges in tents etc is because state mental hospitals were discontinued. Democrats ran on how people shouldn’t be locked up (just as they are now turning dangerous criminals out).

So much worse to have the drug/mentally ill living as we all see now. Imagine they could actually at least have a roof and food, a bed even though they would be under lock for the safety of themselves and others.

Better to make the mental hospitals carefully run than just shut them down and turn them out.
