Maybe the parents should think about getting a job and quit doing drugs and alcohol.
Or am I just being cruel.
I’m thinking those children should be taken from their lowlife parents.
I think there should be orphanages again.

Considering that so many of the homeless in San Francisco have jobs, your advice of the first part is useless. I agree about drugs/alcohol. In looking at the homeless reports in both large and small cities, the problem is that there are too many people and too few housing choices. "Affordable housing" in the larger cities is in the same class as Obama's "affordable health care" -- an oxymoron.
For many of the cities with homeless problems, the issue is that those cities are attractive nuisances. You need to eliminate the attraction to get the homeless to move on, and perhaps live where they can afford housing on the wages they earn.
Want to talk about health care costs? Listen to hospital administrators who complain about the number of "freebie" patients -- and how they have to boost the fees charged to the rest of us to cover the cost of free-loader care.
Welfare programs et al just further encourage inappropriate choices. (I remember hearing the stories of groups of unemployed and seldom-employed actors in LA pooling their benefits money and living in nice places, renting nice cars.)
As for the children, that's another problem. How come the Democrats never talk about requiring a license to bring a child into the world, complete with credit and background check?
