If you build it, they will come!

What happens when BLM burns them down?

I’d rather see this kind of thing than a lot of other ways to deal with the problem. Set up the shop and train the homeless people to make them for others. Being productive and self-sufficient is the best way to move them out of poverty and dependency.

“To get a house or hut, residents must put in sweat equity completing them, help run the village store or complete other activities, and follow rules. More than 50 people have expressed interest in a hut and many have attended orientation and become members of Occupy Madison, Konkel said.”

For some, this COULD work...but the “Occupy Madison” seems a problem to me...are they supposed to riot on demand?

Nice idea, nicely made, but...

....sorry to be cynical, but it’ll fall apart.

The Wiggie’s building is too far to walk for body excretions.

You know these Occupy people would be rioting if President Trump were putting illegal immigrants in those shelters.

"As Lyons continued his move — installing a small petroleum cooker next to a pile of old newspapers he also uses as toilet paper, concealing a shiv, stashing his drug paraphernalia, putting down bedding for his 120-lb, flea-ridden Great Dane — volunteers used a jack and group muscle to set huts into spots near electrical hookups or did other tasks."

So what happened to the Wiggie’s Bar?

“To get a house or hut, residents must put in sweat equity completing them”

“sweat equity” - sure ... I remember when the Feds gave the Tribes (in the Pacific NW) brand new free inboard 25 foot fiberglass skiffs to gillnet salmon with - what did they have to do? Show up once a week and sweep the floor for a few minutes when they were sober - for the $18,000 it would have cost otherwise.

How cold does it get there? Wonder how many will burn down due to using electric heaters and who is paying the utility bill and property taxes?

MY Fleetwood double wide mfgd home cost $9/sq ft less than these huts.
