Why don’t they just take everyone’s hard earned money from the real working people of Oregon and give it to the low life’s.
Geezzz, when are those people going to snap?
Can I “Self Identify” as a Oregon Homeless Person?
Outright cash giveaways, providing housing, etc. simply does not work. A lot of the homeless element would spend the money on drugs and those that get put into free housing simply don’t want/can’t follow the rules that inevitably come with the ‘freebie.’
This has been done before and it does not work, period.
I hope this passes, and I hope that every single homeless person in the country moves to Oregon.
I hope the Oregon giveaway sucks up all the homeless in California.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
The homeless would still be on the street, because they would use it all for drugs, which was the original reason they were homeless.
Better would be to take an old Army base, let them live there, provide with food, prohibit drugs, and make them dry out.
More theft by government.
That’s how you clean them off the streets.
Opioid and alcohol poisoning deaths skyrocket.
The headline says "No strings attached" however I count at least 4.
A drug dealers dream.
I’m homeless and my wife’s homeless too
The concept could make broader sense.
How about giving every American enough money to have a minimal set of necessities. At the same time take away all welfare and other assistance programs. This scheme might be cheaper than our current system of selective, expensively administered handouts.
And that $1000 would last about all of 6 minutes.
Rhetorical question but I understand if you don’t comment further...Why was she more your problem and not your brother’s?
“The $1,000 payments can be used at recipients’ discretion, but supporters say it will be used toward rent and other living expenses”
Yeah, that’s the ticket. Pass the Jack Daniels and Fentanyl.
That’s a shame...was that that at the same time you lost your weapons in that horrible houseboat accident?(LOL!)
Incentivizing homelessness is why there are so many, and how liberals created the problem and are making it worse. They’re subsidizing human suffering and feel good about it.
What better way to attract homeless to your state?
Hey Oregon, INCOMING!
>A drug dealers dream.<
The cost for a small rock of crack just went up to $1000.
