LA Considers Ambitious Proposal To Provide Housing For Every Homeless Person
CBS LA ^ | March 23, 2018 | Staff

Posted on 03/24/2018 3:23:10 PM PDT by C19fan

The Los Angeles City Council Friday is considering a motion that would enact a plan to provide housing for every transient in the city, as it continues to grapple with a housing shortage which has spiked rents and sent thousands of people into homelessness. The motion, introduced last month by Councilmen Mike Bonin and Marqueece Harris-Dawson, says there is little evidence that anything is being done to create or improve shelters for the homeless in the city and that a true sense of emergency is needed to deal with the problem.

So every opioid addict will move to LA. There are an estimated 60,000 homeless in LA county. If this passes that will grow indefinitely.

And it means more people who pay taxes fleeing CA and injecting their politics into red states.

Please build the housing in Malibu, preferably as close to Rob Reiner, Cher and Barbra Streisand as possible!

There is not enough money in the world for Socialism to work.

Even if they were able to provide housing for 60,000 individual, what will they do with the next batch of 60,000 and then the next batch and so on...

What you reward you get more of. Reward bums with free housing, free food, free clothing, free medical and turn a blind eyes to their drug use and mental health and you will have more bums then taxpayers.

But go ahead, it will just bankrupt California sooner rather than later.

So everyone’s from California is a liberal, that’s news to me.

Trump got 4.5 million votes in Ca in case you didn’t know.

So...the wealthy LIBs in their massive guarded enclaves could probably each take 20-30 illegal alien invaders who are homeless. Why not? They have the room. To not do so is cold-hearted and uncaring. Do they hate the illegal alien invader homeless???

As long as a single taxpayer’s dollar is NOT in California’s coffers California will have funding for their paradise.

Being from New Jersey, I sympathize. The generalizations are annoying. Like in most states red states, the urban concentrations carry the day and vote for the leftist suckwads, making the rest of the state look bad.
