One, it’s classifying all homeless as drug addicted burdens on society when that’s just objectively not true, so the net this is casting will hurt regular ass people down on their luck. Two, it’s aggressively paternalistic. “Oh, these laws making it illegal to be homeless are for their own good!” No man. It’s to fill private prisons. That’s all any of this has ever been for. You’re just a sucker.
“Come up with a non complex solution to this problem” *does that* “Wow this is so non complex and stupid” Yeah man, had to bring it to your level as per your request. Despite that, you still determined “building more rehab centers” to be so unfeasible that it was a “fairy tale solution.”
What you’re proposing is an involuntary rehab center by the way. So to just build a mass amount of those would probably be pretty close to a fairytale, I don’t know if you have seen how government has been working lately, but that seems sort of out of the scope doesn’t not?
Do you think locking people with a mental health issue in prison where there Issues get worse and their prospects decrease is a particularly moral thing to do? “I know what will decrease homelessness, let’s make them all felons! That way none of them can ever get a high paying job!”
I don't think them doing drugs makes the community safer, but I alsll I don't believe putting these people in underfunded and understaffed institutions is going to make our communities safer in the long term. In some cases, putting them in places like prison can make them more violent.
We can keep smashing up tent cities and forcing them into prisons but unless we give people real paths to improve their lives this sort of thing is going to continue as it already has. They have no incentive to move up in the world as is, otherwise more would be attempting.
Sure. Where they’re not in cages like dogs with career criminals and drug peddlers. Where they have a bed and a roof and a room to themselves, food to eat, and the ability to clean up both literally and in the drug use sense. Where they can see their family, or get a real job. Seek education. Be human.
Well it’s a complex problem, I think the main goal should be making it as easy as possible for people to get clean off of drugs. Housing should also be subsidized by the government to avoid people becoming homeless to begin with. It’s a very complex topic I’m not fully prepared to talk about. But subsidized housing and more functional routes to getting clean would be my two big steps if I ruled the world.
I don’t care if people do drugs, if you want to OD on meth or ibuprofen in your bathroom, I literally couldn’t give a shit. Do what you want with your life man live out your freedoms The original post was people doing drugs in the streets, the very real problem that exists today in most major cities. That I do care about, I don’t care if you’re homeless or if you’re some billionaire, that is a problem
