There are plenty of Oaklanders with extra space...? WTF??? Why not fill your extra space with street people your government won’t deal with?
I’d rather have a homeless person in my house than a politician.
That’s right. Pay your skyhigh CA taxes and then assume the burden of caring for a homeless person. That gives the state more money to pay for public employee pensions.
It’s not just that the government doesn’t want to deal with them, it’s worse. They don’t even want to deal with the government much of the time... and who could blame them... except usually the government is giving instead of taking. The problem with volunteering to house the homeless is that a significant portion of the homeless are so because of mental illness or drug abuse, or both. Not to besmirch all homeless but these types are not going to leave your possessions or your way of living intact.
