“ignoring better alternatives”
The best alternative is DO NOTHING for them. The more we spend, the more homeless we get. Lather, rinse, repeat for DECADES has done nothing.
It may seem heartless, but the very best thing is to let the able-bodied either a) starve or b) work to eat and stay alive.
I will make exceptions for the truly needy, the mentally incapable. But we can reopen state mental institutions for them.
Things were so much better when churches and communities cared for the indigent, not Big Brother.
Yeah this’ll cut down on being homeless for sure.../sarc
More of the left’s war on suburbs. But, since they want everyone in their inner city high rises, why not start with the homeless?
Tens of millions that SHOULD have been spent on institutionalizing these broken souls until they got sober or had the proper amount of medications and got their feet underneath them. Otherwise keep them in the asylums. Is the only realistic and compassionate way in my opinion.
Tip of the iceberg.
All up and down the coast are subsidized housing in the beach cities, paid for by not just the State but the Federal government.
Subsidized to live on the beach!
Enjoy paying for it

California...where ALL the homeless should be bussed to.
Federal personal income taxes were originally
unConstitutional. There was a VERY good
reason for that. As soon as that changed,
America started a slow decent into where
are today, broke and in debt.
A government run by idiots, for idiots.
We used to be a republic, now we are a
bureaucracy.
as long as you keep voting for corrupt Democrats, you get corrupt Democrat results ...
It’s just another democrat scam and their filling their pockets
Focusing on “luxe neighborhoods” is misdirection. Why is the budget $2.6 billion? Why does it cost $1 million per room? Not because the homeless are living in mansions. Its because the money flows through a million bureaucratic channels and a million non-profit organizations before it actually provides a service for the homeless. And every one of them has their hand out to get their cut when it passes through their department or organization. Its how they survive. So probably 90% of that $2.6 billion goes to keep some government or non-profit employee paid.
People in the California Gov’t are taking a percentage of the income the Gov’t is paying accommodation owners are collecting from Taxpayers.
