Taxpayer money. Give your hard-earned money to NGOs who support this? Guilt tripped?

And has nothing to show for it, other than they probably attracted a lot of homeless with their policies.

Put them in jails and mental hospitals. Worked for many years until they released them all. Much cheaper and some of the mentally ill get treatment instead of dying horrible deaths on the streets.

SF and LA have been spending more than that for a decade or more. It just gets sucked up by the homeless industrial complex and never actually helps get anyone off the streets.

Remember the old signs at park entrances? โ€œDo not feed the animals.โ€

This is because they forget how to take care of themselves if people do it for them.

Portland's a hellhole because their 'elites' are more concerned about 'feeling good about themselves' than in helping the 'homeless' or any other group.
It's like TV stations that hire beautiful bimbos so their office experience feeds their egos at the expense of the network... Selfish and unaware - the liberal 'look' for their twisted reality.

The only good thing is that unlike California, most of their liberals don't have the money to escape to red states like Florida and Texas and Tennessee. So they get to live in the hellhole they created. Which is 'just desserts'...

“Homeless?” I think the pig-ignorant bigots meant “unhoused.”
