I suppose it never occurred to the geniuses in government that homelessness isn’t housing problem, but a drug and mental health crisis.

Need to cut of the free stuff. Reinstitute the depression era CCC, put these bums to work cleaning out underbrush on federal land. Teach them a trade such as carpentry, plumbing, masonry, etc. the physical labor and fresh air will do a body good.

Exactly, the homeless people I know have 50 or 60 different problems. And homelessness is just one of them.

And, the very worst thing you can do is give them money. If they get a government check, they go on a 3 day bender and end up face down in a ditch.

Agree. Here’s a better solution, Mary’s Mercy Center in San Bernardino. It is a 12-24 month structured program that requires a lot of work by the homeless individuals. Worth the 7 minute view. BTW, I’ve volunteered for over 20 years with Father Mike. God bless.

Yep; and a multi-generational expression of a society gone mad, having turned from God.
