big $ to be made off the homeless... gov’t contracts, housing development, third-party non-profits, lawyers...

the more homeless, the more money to be made.... until these incentives are changed, nothing will happen.

Something needs to be done. It’s way out of hand, and spreading like wildfire.

There are unsightly encampments under freeway overpasses all over the place.

These are moving to the suburbs, and middle income neighborhoods are under the gun. Crime seems to have increased considerably since these encampments were initiated.

If you own a million dollar home, it’s kind of disconcerting to find yourself in the middle of skid row.

If you build it, they WON'T come! Until institutionalization is resurrected, "Urban Outdoorsmen/Women" will persist on your streets!

Great opportunity for liberals to see what life looks like with an adult in charge.

There's no cavalry coming from Washington

You got THAT right, bub.
Why should the rest of America (us) pay for you to throw more money at a problem that YOU created with your liberal policies?

F.O.!

It is NOT a homeless problem nor a housing problem.

It is a vagrancy, drug and alcohol addiction, mental illness, lack of law enforcement, bum, and loser problem.

I am beyond sick of this so-called "homeless" problem. Has anyone of these blue city politicians ever explained by numbers/categories who are the homeless"?

Here's my explanation:
1. Too many are mentally ill. CA shut down many institutions that helped them years ago. They reproduce and proliferate.
2. Some are PTSD Veterans and lost their way.
3. Very few are single mother's who have fallen through the cracks as they like to say. Where are their welfare benefits?
4. California's illegal immigration that take jobs and low cost housing.
5. The vast majority are what we used to call bums or the romantic term "hobos". They just don't want to live in a structured society, plus they get all the food and water they need from different charity orgs.
6. Oops, forgot the druggies. It should be higher on this list.

Sure you're asking how I'm so certain of the above. I left a dis-functional family at 16. I lived in cars, garages, and even in a sleeping bag on the streets. I met some professional homeless and they would always tell me they prefer it that way.

At 16, I worked every menial job I could get to advance and got a studio apartment until I was self-sufficient and built from there. I remember one street job where I almost passed out from hunger. I didn't join the Navy until 25 years of age. I needed a bigger purpose. The bums don't want a purpose.

Sanctuary cities deserve NOTHING from the federal government.

the housing inequality problem must be solved

A massive earth quake in LA will provide housing equality in a matter of a few minutes. /s

Horse and barn door. It would be more prudent to catch them before they were totally out in the street.

[Garcetti] said the federal aid would not match the hundreds of millions of dollars spent at the local level

"There's surplus property that they have all over, so I think they looked at everything," he said.

"There's no cavalry coming from Washington," he said

Unbelievable. He's picking the Fed pocket yet manages three face slaps all at the same time.

EFF YOU, you Leftist pig! You deserve not a single GD cent from "Washington" (translation: the rest of the country's taxpayers) in order to "fix" the problems caused by your own Leftist crap SANCTUARY policies!
