People don’t need to read the article to upvote what they already know. This morning I stood on the balcony of my San Francisco apartment on a very high floor, but not high enough where I could not see and hear the homeless people croak. Someone has to do something.
- scurvy 7y agoUnderstandable for sure. I'm not a nimby but I don't see how blindly building housing in certain areas will ever lead to a stopping of public heroin injection and meth smoking. The housing cost link seems flimsy on its best day. "these people smoke crack on the streets. Housing costs are high. They must need a low income condo, then they'll stop smoking crack outside my balcony." Fund mental health and public health care if you want to stop the aggro homeless buildup. Don't build more studio apartments.
- xwdv 7y agoIf people spend money on a house, they won’t spend it on crack and heroin. If they are already addicted, throw them in some kind of rehab center, away from sight.
