I agree, and I forgot about the "half billion over 12 years" line in the article. But why throw shade at the homeless due to a failing of the city?

- busterarm 10y agoI'm not throwing shade at the homeless. Homeless people should not be encouraged to be out on the street all day. It causes problems for them and it causes problems for everyone else too. Speaking from both experience and research here (see above where I mention about being homeless). Also, if the city is going to provide a service here (which it has, by outsourcing to Intersection), it needs to make it "Available to Everyone", not just "Available". Right now because people can and do camp out there all day it's the latter. These systems have cameras and the city and Intersection absolutely should be using those cameras to rate-limit peoples' use to make it "Available to Everyone". Except the cameras are facing the wrong way.
