A little bit of history is mandatory at this point as so many simply do not know anything about the current state of the Homeless.
When we arrived n the U.S from Commy slavery in the Eastern Block, my father worked as a physician in one of the State Mental hospitals in Massachusetts - Grafton to be precise.
Back in the late 60s/early 70's these facilities housed the mentally ill in a humane manner, these people were well treated and lived out their lives being taken care of and NOT being the homeless scourge we see today on meany of your city streets.
Right around 1975 or so, Michael DuKassssss, I believe than the Governor of Taxasgusets, going along with the B.S. of the day and the LEGAL Assault on "freedom" of the mentally helpless people, closed down these facilities, thus, starting the creation of the Homeless situation you see today.
History, everyone should always know more
I have an aunt who spent the majority of her adult life in/out of a mental institution - mostly ‘in’. She was well-treated and eventually, with the advent of discoveries in medicine, etc., she was able to go home in her mid-60’s. Her husband had never abandoned her (there’s a story there), and he got an apartment where the two could live together .... first time since she was in her twenties & had just had their first child. She died of a massive heart attack maybe 2 years later after moving to the apartment - he lived a long while later, to late 90’s. I’ll never forget some of the times with her when she was not doing well - off her meds, no personal hygiene, not making sense a lot of the time & having to hide any knives/sharp objects in the house for fear of what she’d do - that is what usually precipitated a trip to the state mental hospital (& finally, she just stayed there). She was a very intelligent woman, very sweet when not in the grips of a ‘spell’ and I’m sorry I didn’t have a chance to know her better.
They have no financial obligations, no need to work, no need to follow any procedure.
Simply exist, and sponge off the teat of the local govt.
It is made easy for them, they re not asked to move along, they simply squat here they please, to eliminate and also set up housekeeping.
Lazy, used to be called hobos, now they are the "great Homeless", which is nothing more than a political sandwich to feed the gullible.
Here in CA, the mayor of sacto wants to spend 100 million bucks to, get this, supply 150 units for the homeless.
Like that is going to solve anything, and the cost per?
The homeless is a tool by which more and more mony is grifted, like everything else the rats do, which is continually devising more and more ways to suck off the vat of cash the taxpayer supplies.
To get rid of a rat infestation in the garage, one cleans up all the loose chicken feed, and obtains a jack russel terrier.
Soon, no more rats.
