Utopia? More like a Cyberpunk Dystopia...

> Look at the actual numbers though and, at least officially, it’s not that bad. A city of ~800,000 residents has ~8,000 people living on the streets[1]. Around 1%, same as the ratio for USA as a whole with 580,000 homeless people[2].

1% of the US would be around 3 Million people...

I think that depends where you land. San Francisco is in the top 10 cities in the world for “billionaires per capita”. SFBA as a whole takes the cake if I remember correctly.

You are right, I decimal’d wrong. USA as a whole is 0.2% homeless

"dystopia: an imagined state or society in which there is great suffering or injustice"

That doesn't preclude rich people. In fact having rich people help with the contrast, like in the article where a human beings body rotted on the sidewalk for a day outside a 5 million dollar home.
