The state has spent billions of dollars on homelessness in recent years. So why is the crisis getting worse instead of better?

Haha, they know exactly why and to pretend otherwise is just more BS.

This condition is now called the Business of Homelessness. It will never go away as it is a cash cow for the Socialists.

Seems logical that the more comfortable you make the homeless the greater the influx of homeless and the less likely they will be to try and change their circumstances.

Because the politicians, their supporters, and the drug cartels are the primary beneficiaries by design.

Proving that you get more of whatever you subsidize...

We know why. They actually know why, but want to act like they seriously don’t.

For a fee of merely 10 million dollars, I will tell them.

Won’t it be fun to see what that $743,400 taxpayer-funded audit finds and recommends?

Maybe they’ll implement something like Trump’s plan (LOL).

If you want more of something, subsidize it.

It’s simple. The more you cater to them, subsidize them, and kiss their filthy rearends, the more their ranks will grow.

Do the exact opposite of what the “low income and homeless advocates” recommend to reduce homelessness.

Not only that but the Socialists use this issue as a sledgehammer on society. “Nice hotel ya got there, guess who you’re housing…”
