Agreed. Somebody should have resolved it 20 years ago. Forgive me for not believing in this resolution that never comes. Government is out of excuses as far as I’m concerned.

I agree. But coastal states are rich enough to handle this yet they’ve been doing nothing except taking about it.

You’re treating it as some theoretical thought exercise. Not my case.

I am a person who is victimized by homeless. If I had an instrument that gives every homeless a home, I’d use it, but I don’t have one. It’s not my job to create one either. It’s the government’s job. Now I’m given another instrument that allows me to move the problem somewhere else. I don’t care where it moves - it’s not my job to setup this system. I can only choose between my family’s safety vs some rando safety. I will ALWAYS choose the former. It’s not cruelty on my part - it’s just logic. People making these pro-homeless comments fall into 2 categories : 1. Not personally affected because they don’t live here or are rich 2. Have high tolerance of danger like those people climbing mountain without rope. I’m not one of those people so any instrument to deal with my immediate problem is welcomed.

Not ideal solution, but I’m so happy that something is being done. I think people who don’t live in West Coast realize how much homeless people victimize working poor. That’s me and my family. Rich people don’t care that my wife can’t take the Max to work for fear of being attacked. They’ll just drive wherever they need to. My city just posted allowed camping map and guess what? It’s all around apartments because it’s close to transit. I’ve voted Democrats since I lived in this country, but they have been in charge of Oregon for ages and solved nothing.

I had no idea it got so expensive. It’s been ages since I had any interest eating there.

There’s also kumir. It was(is?) used to teach kids how to program. I first learned programming using it many years ago. I still think that it made me a better programmer than people who were using Pascal instead. They were both popular in schools at the time.
