We need to have treatment centers for homeless and mentally ill. They should not be homeless! That is inhumane and unloving, and will destroy cities.

Please make sure we take care of people who can't take care of themselves! Some cities have solved this problem.

I agree with you but who’s gonna pay for that? Hospital means, bed, food, accommodation, therapy for many many years. It’s ridiculously expensive!
In San Francisco we just give them clean needles and towels (to safely shoot heroine) and some snacks to secure our non-profit budgets and jobs 😒

@eMortal Some cities enforce laws and their own social security and disability pay for their treatments and housing.

@Carazaa There’s a Coalition for Homelessness in SF that files lawsuits any chance they get to stop any attempt to get homeless people off the streets.
It’s war!

@eMortal Get the deadbeat rich to pay some tax.. (Very UnAmerican of me I know. But I am not American)😷

@whowasthatmaskedman Lol they pay a lot of taxes! Why do you think Elon Musk left to Texas? Our problem is corrupt politicians with their fake non-profits money wholes, sucking up all the resources poured into the homeless industrial complex!

@eMortal We agree. Elon went to Texas for yet another tax break. And as long as the states compete against each other for jobs whichtreanslate into votes, ita always going to be that way. One problem with the United States is that the states care more about their own political survival than the progress or good of the nation..😷
