People who are arguing that drug addicts be given hotel rooms are not on the other end of the spectrum. That's a center-left policy at most.
It's a massively inefficient "solution" that does nothing to address the issue. Provide housing, don't give a ton of money to hotel chains.
- lazyasciiart 4y agoArguments for hotel rooms right now are often referring to purchasing actual hotel buildings and running them as shelters with private rooms - California and Washington have both done this on occasion.
