In a way we don't disagree. I think citizens would be quite happy with a solution which makes the homeless invisible by sequestering them. Its probably also the best for the health of these people. But remember how we got here. Reagan shut down the asylums because they were expensive, messy and "inhumane". 20 years after reinstitutionalizing we will lament the cost of sedation and imprisonment.
- pc_edwin 3y agoCalifornia spent $4 billion a year on homelessness. Thats roughly $35,000 per homeless person (115,000). IMO it shouldn't even that much to institutionalise/imprison/forcefully remove these people but even if it did cost as much or more, it would still be worth it. Imagine what would clean safe streets do for these cities, it would create such a huge rebound!
