Frightening to me that over 43 thousand folks have NO place at all to stay--not even a car. My heart goes out to them.
It is deeper than they have no place to stay. They are the mentally challenged, drug addicted and those otherwise incapable of helping themselves. It boils down to them making that choice. There are services available if they wanted them. This isn't the 1930s with millions unemployed cast adrift with no safety net.
Living in a free society has it's costs, and one of those costs is people are free to make their own choices. We can't just arbitrarily force people into drug rehab and mental care facilities. The insane asylums of the mid 20th century were deemed a complete failure.
People can't be made to quit drugs. It's a problem without a solution.
Theres always a solution
Some very drastic
like China and Philipines that execute drug pushers and sends addicts into reeducation camps
Their opium wars of the past taught them well.
Portugal simply Legalized all drugs and gives proper medical care to all adicts
Japan has the best educated people in the world who knows whats right and wrong.
They wont touch any drugs
People who use drugs are simply low IQ UNeducated simpletons,blame the schooling system
