Wouldn’t it be cheaper to build some small cells - kind of like the supposedly non-existent FEMA camps and keep the like of him in one? AFter all, if $150K in a year didn’t get him off the booze, then maybe putting him in a small cell with no company, give him the very basic nutrition, and let him dry out the old-fashioned way - deep him separated.
Depending on state, $150K would pay for an inmate in a maximum security prison for a few years... He apparently has made the decision to wallow in drunkenness. In that state, he represents a danger to others. Put him in a position that he really can make no other decision than to walk away from alcohol.
In CA incarceration in state prison cost $49k per year.
How about this for a solution. Find an out of way place and give the inebriates all the free booze they want. I imagine most of them would just stay there. Call it “Big Rock Candy Mountain.”
These people, and their political accomplices, have turned much of San Francisco into a sewer. San Francisco has actually shut down fountains to prevent inebriates from using them as toilets.
