Yeah the problem comes when you have cities like Boulder which are very close to natural wonders and are actively pursuing policies to deal with homelessness in the local community instead of throwing their hands up with statements like this: > And the programs the OP is referring to, social safety net type things, aren't local but national in scale. They are because you choose to make it that way, and that's why Texas is a shithole. It's not that here is perfect, it's that they actually are taking steps that make sense to try to improve things. Texas's laws as a state pretty much preclude any sort of development there in that direction. That's beyond the absurd political climate you have to deal with in a state where Rick Perry was governor multiple times.
