It's funny you mention homelessness in SF and attribute it to liberalism, because it is partly attributed to Reagan closing California’s public mental health institutions and releasing the mentally disabled into the streets.
It sounds more like you have a bias than a point.

- refurb 11y agoFirst off, Reagan wasn't the initiator of closing mental health facilities, it was a broader trend. Second, they didn't close them to save money, they closed them because locking someone up in a facility was deemed inhumane.
- bduerst 11y agoI never said anything about price, and that "trend" definitely wasn't liberalism. Why are you splitting hairs? Did you reply to the right comment?
