We taxpayers will pay for it.
But we taxpayers are already paying for homelessness, in the form of first responders, hospital stays, cleaning up you know what off the sidewalks, and the intangible decline in quality of life when you get homeless congregating in certain areas.
Yup.
It would just be less expensive to put such people in group homes and have them be looked after.
Everyone’s quality of life would improve and the eyesore of homelessness and the sanitary and real estate impact issues surrounding it would disappear.
Taxpayers already pay for it and if they subsidize housing for homeless people, society is better off in the long run.
