Thanks for the critiques. I think for it to be sensible it requires a different framing to the problem. > ...they will be surrounded in many cases by cheap booze... > ...If you have, you'd know that Indonesia and Thailand are very protective of their labor markets... > ....do you really think SE Asians want homeless Americans (some with mental illness and substance abuse issues) teaching their kids? Good points. Related questions are answered here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=28346353 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=28346353 > ...few things worse than taking people who can't support themselves in their home country and shipping them off to SE Asia... Also, we don't evict people and "ship them off". It's about giving them an oppournity with incentives to make a decision in their life, a new chapter that they can choose to embark on if they see it as a better alternative to being homeless in CA.
