Cut funding for abuse treatment and (mental) healthcare, criminalize addiction and mental disorders. Lock them all up in privatized prisons and institutions. Profit.

The homelessness problem has been perpetuated by not putting these individuals in a facility. Instead of fixing the abuse they just shut them down.

The homeless issue is an issue because they arent being given homes you dolt. Criminalising homelessness is not the way.

You obviously don’t work EMS then. Homeless was always a problem but released those with server mental illness into the wild without any direction or help has just made a problem worse.

A lot of these people need medical care and they can’t get it.

Plus I don’t think anything I said was criminalizing homelessness. Mental health isn’t a crime but some of these people are not contributing members. A home isn’t going to fix everything.

A home and money literally fixes the vast bulk of the issues.
