Almost 50 percent of all homeless people in the US?

Are in California.

Another billion dollars will only add MORE.

If free or low cost housing, isn’t going to get them off the streets, what would?

[JesusIsLord]

How about closing up your Southern border to stop the flow of drugs, a major cause of homelessness!!

There are estimated 2.4 million illegal aliens in California. In addition to tapping American taxpayer paid benefits, I would think these illegals also contribute to and exacerbate the CA homeless problem because they compete with Americans for shelters and low-cost housing/apartments.

Check this out.

Ass bites in California want us NORMAL FOLKS to pay for their mistakes.

All of it will be wasted, los angeles just spent over $600K per crappy apartment for the homeless when they could have bought Brand New Manufactured 2 bdrm 2 bath homes for $60K DELIVERED AND SETUP!!!

This idiot is feeding feral cats and then is alarmed because more and more keep showing up, killing the songbirds and urinating all over his carport.

It reminds me of that old, wrinkled, kalifornia skank that moved to Orygone and kept feeding the bears. Then she stopped smoking dope long enough to realize she had a problem. She asked the Rangers to get rid of the bears. The what'd she do? She kept feeding them.

Kalifornians. Everything they touch turns to dung.

Easy. Google Active Denial System

[Reily]

They seem to like dung.
Want it all about them!

If that measure is too extreme - there are other good alternatives.

It’s the Homeless Industrial Complex.

How about placing the insane in asylums again? Wouldn’t the money be better spent?

[dljordan]

This SOB has gone completely ham. What are we watching unfold? He is connected to some of the most powerful people in the country and I’m thinking this is an experiment. Do you see this insanity occurring anywhere else?

[HighSierra5]

Bingo!

[Jamestown1630]

Today’s Democrats don’t seem to know how to effectively accomplish much at all - except to talk, and waste money.

[devane617]

...and in six months of clean toilets and plenty food they are supposed to new model citizens? Hmm, wonder how this will work out?

[devane617]

2.4 million sounds real low to me.

[DUMBGRUNT]

The estate of Jack Kevorkian still holds the patents on the Thanatron.

[antidemoncrat]

Get the money from Silicone Valley. You know...the folks making billions of dollars from the Republic they constantly try to destroy.

[mewzilla]

Last I knew CA was getting over $400 BILLION in federal taxpayers’ money annually.

Federal taxpayers have given at the office.

[Pelham]

The money will get funnelled to Newsome cronies with no accountability. This is how California politicians steal large amounts of taxpayer money
