| No. I made a proposal above (though, you’ll also not that I said I thought my proposal was unlikely to be workable in practice). But, if you review what I wrote, you’ll note I never proposed anything close to what you asked about. My actual proposal would be this: we should invest heavily in a housing first approach to homelessness at both the federal and state level. We should invest in this as a priority, as if it will save lives because it will. Along with that, we should invest in mental health and addiction treatment programs as a supplement. We should tax the fuck out of the rich to do so in a revenue neutral way. |
That's what California does, and the homeless problem in CA just gets worse.
