Homelessness like this should be declared a national emergency? Imagine the cells which could utilize such a mess?? The disease harbor? The risk to life and property? Is there a constitutional way to declare a "failed state" or perhaps "failed city"? Just musing.. this is absurd
It is. Why would anyone stay there is my question.
well the homeless people themselves are not 100% to blame, the marxists made that state unlivable, plus factor the drugs, and the safe harbor to use them in public, it's a nuanced problem but at some point it's ridiculous
And rent control has made people unable to rent and break even. With few exceptions rent can only be raised 5% + 10 % for inflation. This is stupid when inflation for everything is higher. And you can no longer hire someone for a couple days work, without making them an employee, requiring you pay unemployment and withhold taxes from their pay. You have to do this even to have a babysitter for 1 hour. You don't have to for relatives, which is hard for me because I am running out of handyman relatives.
I understand
