Hawaii is hoping to take the burden off its welfare system by saying aloha to its 17,000 homeless residents.
The state will offer one-way tickets home to any eligible homeless person to anywhere in the continental United States.
Hawaii has allotted $100,000 for a three year trial run of the so-called 'return-to-home' program, which could also even offer participants beds on cruise ships bound for their homes.

RE: bunk in at the Baraq Hussein Obama Presidential Library
Is he planning to build it in Illinois or Hawaii ( or maybe Kenya or Indonesia )?
I hear Caliph Baraq will be the first to have three branches, all with gold fixtures:
Hawaii, Cali, and NYC.
1933 Hooverville
2013 Obamaville
One of the government officials quoted in the article pretty much admits that “this is an open invitation for people to buy one-way tickets to Hawaii”.
...see post #7...
Poor Hoover.
He had no idea that Fed Reserve created bogus minibucks could purchase the affection of the voters.
Doesn’t look like they got it too bad. If all else fails, I’d go “homeless in Hawaii” for my retirement plan.
LOL....
Hoover was a victim of the depression
Obama planned an executed ours.

Well, that can be serious federal trouble if they do that. The regulators don’t play around when it comes to “housing discrimination”.
Wouldn’t it just be cheaper to ship them all to Kahoolawe?
You get a Mae West and a map.
“How far can they go on $5.88 each?”
About two miles offshore, I think. Maybe Hawaii thinks that’s far enough.
Geez... that’s less than $6 per person... cheap folks, there in the islands.
Aye, that might do it, or perhaps the return trip to China
I’ve seen these massive camps of homeless myself...biggest in the nation.
“The regulators dont play around when it comes to housing discrimination.”
I’m sure of it. Fortunately, we’ve become so overwhelmed with Hispanics that I don’t think the towns around me will be required to diversify anymore (unless it is to bring Americans back).
