‘All we do is lie around, eat ice-cream, have sex, and take drugs,’ said Cali. ‘Man, I love ice-cream.

Also from the above article:

Witte lives with his seven-year-old dog Luis. ‘I got him in Montana,’ he said.

‘I hop freight trains. I’ve been all round the country. I went to high school in Virginia, lived in South Carolina, now I’m in California.

‘California is different,’ he said, admitting that legal marijuana is one thing that draws him to the state. ‘But I’ll move on soon. I want to go overseas.’

He is not alone. Many of Sacramento’s homeless are expected to leave town in the next couple of months.

‘They’re migratory,’ antique shop owner Steve Sylvester told DailyMail.com. ‘When the weather gets cooler they’ll head down toward San Diego.’

‘Sacramento is a wonderful place, great weather, with nice, accommodating people who give the homeless money, which unfortunately too often goes to drugs. This area has 30 or so restaurants so there is always food to be had.’

But he says there is another problem. ‘I know homeless people are being given bus tickets here from both Davis and Reno because they are told Sacramento will look after them,’ he said.

The CA liberal government has created this problem.

Do you ever see the people finally getting fed up enough to throw out all the libs and vote in someone who promises to fix the problem?

Or is it a lost cause?
