Exactly

When Biden couldn’t put his jacket on, he later said “We come back stronger”.

Basically the same Isaiah 9:10 verse that

Democrat Tom Daschle
Democrat John Edwards
Democrat John Kerry (IIRC)

cursed America with.

They all read Isaiah 9:10 in a public setting.

Then

Democrat Barack Obama wrote “We come back stronger” on a beam put in the NEW World Trade Center.

As long as it stays in the Leftist cities, don’t care.

The last bill JFK signed is what emptied the mental hospitals, it just took a while for the lawsuits and court system to get it done, that is why most people didn’t notice it for a few years, add in the drug culture, liberal tolerance, a shutdown of the cop’s old brutal ways of getting rid of undesirables and the end of vagrancy laws, and the vast expansion of various sources of welfare money and food stamps given out to subsidize living outdoors, and there you are.

The government needs to start enforcement of vagrancy laws again. When they start arresting these bums the word will get around. Bums to jail, mentally ill to mental hospitals. WTH are we paying taxes for? Bums who have to actually work for a living have less time for drugs and crime. Their lives will actually be improved and many will be saved from overdoses. Common freaking sense.

Marxist social contract:
You do what you could (and not just what you what)
Government adds what is necessary

The dysfunction has far exceeded that of Marx.

[Persevero]

They aren’t folks who are sane professionals that got laid off.

They are mentally ill (probably often due to drug addiction) and addicts.

I might think some who live in their car are just people who had a series of adverse events.

But most of us have family and friends who will take us in if we are on the up and up. Most of these folks aren’t. I don’t mean to sound callous. There are some very dysfunctional people and for at least some of them it’s not their fault.

[Brian Griffin]

Rents have often become absurd.

I remember paying $346/month for the mere privilege of living in a place.

[TygertLane]

End the welfare they live on. It’s easy.

[Brian Griffin]

People and society have become dysfunctional.

“We want immediate action. We want to see people in homes. There’s a humane way to deal with homelessness,” said Pittsburgh City Council president Theresa Kail-Smith.

So, the solution to this left-wing problem is to confiscate still more money from already-hurting taxpayers and use the funds to gift the societal dregs fancy digs that they will undoubtedly also run into the ground within a few months.

Understood!

Indian H1B visas = Homelessness.

Tar paper shacks and hopelessness..you will own nothing and you will be happy.

My first apartment rented for $295 a month. And it had a great swimming pool.

From what I’ve seen, rents have gone through the roof.

[wardaddy]

Nashville is a sanctuary city for addict camps we call homeless

It’s fentanyl folks

Any questions ask me

I’m an expert

“We want immediate action. We want to see people in homes. There’s a humane way to deal with homelessness,” said Pittsburgh City Council president Theresa Kail-Smith.

Most of them don’t want to live in homes.

Handy Tip: Bring back the mental hospitals that were shuttered in the '70s and '80s for "humanitarian reasons" after liberals had a sad watching One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest.

Also incarcerating criminals for crime and deporting every illegal in this country.

Who the hell would buy any of these houses located in leftist freaks s-hole cities is my question.

Hopefully foreign investors will buy them intending to rent them out, be unable to rent them out, and take a soaking.

[Terry L Smith]

gee, i forget, was it in the ‘80’ss or ‘90’s that therre was a tv movie about homelessness, in either NYC orL..AA.?

and how many years ago was that, and they were griping then??

homelessness, some by choicee, some not.
if Jesus was reeported to say, you will always have the poor, would you think by now, our great city fathers would have come up with a plan to really take care of them?
