Tax them so much that they become homeless.

Our homelessness spending has increased dramatically in recent years with no discernible improvement in conditions. Before we double the tax bill overnight, San Franciscans deserve accountability for the money they are already paying.

...

Wow. London is going to have to give up her Rat card for talking like that.

It shows what destructive morons are running San Freakcisco. More tax-payer funded destruction???

It shows what Californians will get for a governor if they vote in Gavin Newsom, the RAT candidate. He supports this insane tax-robbing liberalism and DemocRAT stupidity that bites the hand that feeds it.

THE LAW OF EFFECT

Generally, you receive more of the behavior that you reward and less of the behavior that you discourage.

FTA: One of the reasons Seattle’s City Council rescinded the head-tax so quickly is that a majority of city residents didn’t believe the money would be spent wisely.

Wrong!

The reason Seattle’s City Council rescinded the head-tax is Starbucks and Amazon threatened to leave.

Proposition C does not audit the money the City already spends. It does not include a detailed spending plan for the $300M in taxes it seeks to add, nor regular audits of that money, nor adequate public oversight over how it’s spent.

Shun the heretic! Socialism doesn't work if the ruling class can't take its cut off the top.

You do have to wonder, though - $380 million and there's still poop in the streets? Just where did all that money go, anyway?

Inviting more sidewalk poopers to come to the city.

It would be much more effective to tax the homeless.
Start collecting a loitering fee (or if they don't have the cash, arrest them) and the homeless problem will dissipate very quickly.

Benjamin Franklin said:

“I am for doing good to the poor, but...I think the best way of doing good to the poor, is not making them easy in poverty, but leading or driving them out of it. I observed...that the more public provisions were made for the poor, the less they provided for themselves, and of course became poorer. And, on the contrary, the less was done for them, the more they did for themselves, and became richer.”

It was true then, it is true now.

Just a wild guess, but any leftist program that spends tax dollars on homeless programs will end up increasing homelessness.
