The WiFi debacle is a symptom of the underlying problem of the US dumping its homeless population into an astronomically high CoL, 7x7 mile waterlocked city where regular folk with regular jobs already cannot afford to live, and expecting miracles. And miracles aren't happening despite the $700M/year budget for it obtained from the local polity. I'm not sure where you see "ignoring".
SF is incapable of digging itself out of that hole. Clearly it's not a problem of insufficient spend, and the local politics will not allow for the necessary level of action, so this will continue in perpetuity until there is outside intervention.
"We need to humane harder" is clearly not working. It feels good in the short term, but 10 years later things only get worse and we're scratching our heads wondering why nothing is improving.
