Only In San Francisco: $61,000 Tents And $350k Public Toilets (2021)
- ZeroGravitas 4y agoIronic, from Hoover Institute: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hooverville https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hooverville Also, this isn't even very good trolling: > one can purchase a perfectly fine, very large tent from REI for about $400. The annual budget for these tents is $16.1 million, which comes out to about $61,000 per tent per year. This includes meals, bathroom facilities, and security. A $60,000 "tent" that includes food, sanitary toilets and security. They really needed to stretch for that clickbait headline.
