Matthew 19:21 “If you want to be complete, go and sell your possessions and give all to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow Me.”
Anybody try this method for the homeless? Drug addicts?
This is an open question... It’s Mordor .. Their the Farmers of the Evil Cash Crop.. Steal from the Stakeholders and Funnel it back to Them.. Being of Christian Virtue is no match against The Organization.. Roll Them or They Roll You

Most homeless people are mentally ill, hard to help them, sad as it is. Please define "Mentally Ill"... Thanks... Some people just ain't right. I've been helping out a guy in his 70's who has anger issues and its ruined his life. Can't get along with anyone. Can't let little things go. Mentally he is stuck between age 15-17. Can't understand cause and effect. Can't learn from painful experiences. Can't keep his damn mouth shut. Has to try and be the world's policeman. Ain't got a pot to piss in but expects to be treated like a guest at Mara Lago at the various subsidized places he has lived. Estranged from family from being an [bleep]. Can't afford rent for a single family house on his social security....is financially stretched even living in subsidized housing. I've got him off the street twice but I have told him he is on his own the next time he effs up. He does not drink, does not do drugs.......he just ain't right. To talk to him casually, you would never know. Nice of you to help Blacheart like that.........

I think the answer to homelessness in CA is to reintroduce Grizzly bears. Start with the problem bears in Yellowstone and let them loose down at the wharf to start.
Screw you! I'm voting for Trump again!

No easy or quick solution. Good fiscal policy to increase prosperity, closed border, and an overhaul of public education wouldn’t hurt. almost all are addicts. This is an addiction problem not a homeless problem. How will closing borders cure addiction?

This is an addiction problem not a homeless problem. How will closing borders cure addiction? Most of the meth, fentanyl, and heroin comes into the U.S. across the Mexican border. If we closed the border and shot anyone caught muling drugs via summary execution the volume of available drugs would have to go down. The Mexican government is corrupt and likely to be business partners with the drug cartels. Recreational drugs are like any other consumer good, if there is consumer demand there will be people seeking to fill that demand.

Over Half the Country is either Mentally Impaired or Drug Influenced..
Or Both..
Their Cognitive Processes are Corrupted..
So you either negate their Effects on Running the Country or you Negotiate Their Surrender..
It shouldn’t be to tough their Mental Animal Crackers at this Point..
One other thing.. The Window is Closing on being able to Save the Country..
The Marxist have started a Revenge Champaign on 70 year Old Men..
They’ll run with it till their Stopped..

The best way to change behavior is to make the right thing easy and the wrong thing difficult. The first step is to decide what is right (desireable) and what is wrong (undesireable). We can't agree on that so the problem will remain unsolved. When the homeless decide they want a home, they will find one. The solutions are not difficult but politics make them complicated. Always been that way, always will.

The mentally ill shouldn't be on the streets but we aren't going to spend the money to warehouse them. True. For the ones that are not mentally Ill, work camps would be a good alternative for them. A lot of National Forest and other public lands have to be cleaned up. Putting a Druggie in jail because they refuse treatment is not a good idea, there is a serious drug problem in Jails. Did you ever think that’s why they belong in jail? Other then waste taxpayer money and continuing to get drugs what does it get us?

Make it where’s it not profitable for the cities…
How much does a city get per head from the federal gov for a homeless person?
