$10 billion is roughly $6 per homeless person per year in California. How much are you expecting this one free cup of coffee per quarter to accomplish?

- Filligree 3y agoThey have a billion homeless people?
- sdenton4 3y agoAre you saying that there are 42 million homeless people in California? (10B / $6 / 4 quarters / 10 years) Edit: fwiw, assuming 115k homeless in California (which incidentally is 1/3 of the US total), we get $2,170/person per quarter over ten years. Which does sound like enough to make a real difference in people's lives if you just handed it out.
- manwe150 3y agoOops, yeah, that was a calculator fail. It should have been about $6k/year, but I dropped a factor of 1k. Which is still not much, but a bit more sensible.
- boeingUH60 3y agoWow, there are 1.7 billion homeless people in California?!
