It just seems like the policy incentives in Vancouver are designed to erode the middle class. Allowing open air drug use and homelessness which creates a permanent underclass. More than half of VPD files in shoplifting crackdown did not result in charges, so petty theft and vandalism reduce the profitability of middle class business owners.
