Is it me or have you moved further to the right lately?  

I have always been fiscal conservative. Never left, often centrist. I hate religious interloping into politics, I hate religious hypocrites of the far right, I believe in freedom, including freedom of women to choose. I  I believe in helping my neighbor, I think LGBQ Yada Yada is ok. I believe in equality, hate racism, hate BLM.

So your solution is massive homelessness ?   Niagara Bill tells California to hold my beer.

Not talking solution, not that smart, but public housing creates more issues than it solves. Do you have solutions to the public housing issues? Would you live there and feel safe.

Housing Choice Vouchers Fact Sheet


The housing choice voucher program is the federal government's major program for assisting very low-income families, the elderly, and the disabled to afford decent, safe, and sanitary housing in the private market. Since housing assistance is provided on behalf of the family or individual, participants are able to find their own housing, including single-family homes, townhouses and apartments.

Ok, so you can read a US government doc, the rest of the world exists as well. The question is should government be in the housing business, be landowners and landlords. Seems rather communistic. It has been a failure and produced a culture that has led to racism, drug dependence, crime,  poor education etc.

How did we all get here? Should we get out of the business? 

I say yes, get out.

What say you?

Housing Choice Vouchers , if they break the law or abuse private housing they lose that voucher.

 

Stop calling the US a communist country. At least we keep trying to find solutions.

1. Government will never enforce rules. The have rules today and ignore them, including limited term limits in the buildings and 20 yrs later people still there.

2. In efforts to help, dome programs such as public housing are communistic in nature. All western cultures have tendencies this way. If not communistic then socialistic. (Fanny Mae and Freddy Mac).

I do not think any of us try to solve this issue, but the unintended fall out of a cultural nature is doing damage.
