“Last I read/heard the City of Los Angeles is broke. How can they pay homeowners to house the homeless?”
According to the article they’re talking about a program of only $550,000, which, for LA county with over 10 million people, is less than pocket change. That’s round off error territory.
According to their projected cost per housing unit, that’s going to build housing for TEN “homeless”, out of a supposed homeless population of 55,000!! It’s so insignificant as to be laughed out of town.
$550,000 is just about enough to pay 2 LA janitors for a year.
