Exactly where did the liberals think the crazies would go once they closed the mental hospitals? Sorry about 5% of the population just is not right or capable of caring for themselves. Given the increased prevalence of drug use since the 1970s and 80s when those hospitals were closed, that number has only increased. Nor does America have the extended family structures that once cared privately for such people.

wait, some of these homeless, non working folk have RVs? Really.

Yes. They park them in long stretches along the highways in Los Angeles and other California cities - most are absolutely broken down - have no idea how they got there in the first place.

Near where I work, there is a boat parked along the main road that a homeless person lives in.

The city comes in every once in a while and hauls them off - only to have them return with in days.

Ditto for freeway overpasses - a few days ago - I saw the city clearing one overpass of homeless tents and RVs - while homeless were busy setting back up on the next overpass.

Next step: California state legislature passes income tax on all residents of the 49 other states.

i know nothing about RV’s except they are not cheap.
i’m probably thinking of something much too fine to be owned by a homeless drug addicted crazy person.

There are enormous amounts of Fentanyl, fake Oxycodone pills coming up from Mexico. I wonder how long it will take these business owners to realize that such pills are effectively “rat poison”?

And while some people can build up an immunity over time, Fentanyl is so potent that they are far more likely to peg out long before that happens.

The best part is that it is quite cheap.

In Brazil, business owners bothered by homeless small boys hired groups of ex- and off duty cops to round them up and take them to the jungle for disposal.

It never eliminates the problem. It just reduces it to a manageable level.

California new tax law... “Have you ever visited California? Well congratulations you now will help the State with our new California Tax Law for those whoever set foot in the State.”

Next California new tax law... “Have you ever thought of California? Well congratulations you now will help the State with our new California Tax Law for those whoever thought of the State.”

Final California new tax law... “Have you ever enjoyed a song or watch a TV show or movie made in California? Well congratulations you now will help the State with our new California Tax Law for those whoever enjoyed anything produced in California.”

Small towns in the Gold Country foothills have same problem-—only do not have the resources to deal with it.

Homeless in Grass Valley/Nevada City so bad hardly anyone goes out to restaurants any more. Cannot traverse the sidewalks & cannot leave your car due to break ins.

“”Sacramento passed mail-in for a reason...””

A week before the so-called recall, the brilliant Kalifornia governor enabled and announced massive voting fraud. He published the ballot on the internet and justified it by saying, now everyone has access to the voting booth. There were no announcements on just how many one could print (and complete).

Then,within a few short minutes of the polls closing, they announced the results, and Newsom of course, ‘won.’

One of the few good things is that Newsom has no idea just how idiotic he appears to the rest of the world. I actually hope he runs for President, so the GOP can use the defecation tourist maps in the campaign ads.
