San Francisco man claims city practically pays to be homeless as California residents sound the alarm on crime
https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/practically
Who suggested that 'we' want it?
.............................what a maroon
He's on welfare with food stamps.
Every citizen deserves that if they can't get work.
The option of cutting them off would only lead to millions of criminals stealing to survive.
Paying welfare costs 3 times less than the cost of them being in prison.
And...warm weather places will always have a homeless problem.

You get welfare, right?
Foodstamps?
Maybe, the citizens of SF feel that's better
than leaving these people to their own devices.
@mott-the-hoople saidThis is the dumbest question I ever heard. No one wants this, and you know it. Most of the homeless are that way because they are either not employable, or housing costs are so high they can't afford even the cheapest apartment.

Lost in your stupid, slanted, cherry picking story is the fact that most people on welfare are employed. In my city (Seattle) over half of the homeless work full time, but can't afford the sky-high housing costs.
Your FOX News story is total garbage.
@Mott-The-Hoople
This, and the liberal dems providing safe injection sites is all you need to know where the dems are taking us

Ronald Reagan abolished many
of the meager safety nets that
were available for people who suffer
from mental diseases.
Our mentally ill are mostly
warehoused in jails and penitentiaries.

@contenchess saidYou misspelled Trump.
I blame automation.
It killed a lot of jobs.
All in the name of greed.
There's colors on the street
Red, white and blue
People shufflin' their feet
People sleepin' in their shoes
But there's a warnin' sign on the road ahead
There's a lot of people sayin' we'd be better off dead
Don't feel like Satan, but I am to them
So I try to forget it, any way I can
Keep on rockin' in the free world
Keep on rockin' in the free world
Keep on rockin' in the free world
Keep on rockin' in the free world
I see a woman in the night
With a baby in her hand
There's an old street light (near a garbage can)
Near a garbage can (near a garbage can)
Now she put the kid away, and she's gone to get a hit
She hates her life, and what she's done to it
There's one more kid that'll never go to school
Never get to fall in love, never get to be cool
Keep on rockin' in the free world
Keep on rockin' in the free world
Keep on rockin' in the free world
Keep on rockin' in the free world
We got a thousand points of light
For the homeless man
We got a kinder, gentler machine gun hand
We got department stores and toilet paper
Got Styrofoam boxes for the ozone layer
Got a man of the people, says keep hope alive
Got fuel to burn, got roads to drive
Keep on rockin' in the free world
Keep on rockin' in the free world
Keep on rockin' in the free world
Keep on rockin' in the free world

It ain't the liberal Dems you need to look out for. It's the "what's in it for me" Republicans.

Turn it up
Big wheels keep on turnin'
Carry me home to see my kin
Singin' songs about the south-land
I miss Alabamy once again and I think it's a sin, yes
Well I heard Mister Young sing about her
Well I heard ol' Neil put her down
Well I hope Neil Young will remember
A southern man don't need him around anyhow
Sweet home Alabama
Where the skies are so blue
Sweet home Alabama
Lord I'm comin' home to you
In Birmingham they love the governor (boo-hoo-hoo)
Now we all did what we could do
Now Watergate does not bother me
Does your conscience bother you?
Tell the truth
Sweet home Alabama
Where the skies are so blue
Sweet home Alabama (oh yeah)
Lord I'm comin' home to you
Here I come, Alabama
Now Muscle Shoals has got the Swampers
And they've been known to pick a song or two (yes they do)
Lord they get me off so much
They pick me up when I'm feelin' blue
Now how about you?
Sweet home Alabama
Where the skies are so blue
Sweet home Alabama
Lord I'm comin' home to you
Sweet home Alabama (oh, sweet home)
Where the skies are so blue
And the governor's true
Sweet home Alabama (lordy)
Lord I'm comin' home to you, yeah, yeah
Montgomery's got the answer
@mchill saidthis was an interview of a homeless person…HE SAID THESE THINGS. damn you people are idiots.

“ "If you’re going to be homeless—it’s pretty f------ easy here," said the homeless man in a video posted to Twitter. In the clip, the man said he feels the police are like his "neighbors" and that he is remaining homeless entirely "by choice."
