What a shame with such great homeless advocates in SacTown .. the homeless still don’t have the facilities they need .
Homeless people lack bathrooms in Sacramento. Here's where they may get new facilities

Feel free to go start a thread on it, who cares? I've told you in this thread that Sacramento has a homeless problem so what?

You seem fixated on Sacramento, if you are thinking about moving here let me know and I will refer you to a good realtor.

You must not know any teachers. Or housewives. Or college students. Or adjunct community college instructors. Or 30-year old college students. Or out of work any-year-olds who need to get their foot back in the employment door.

And BTW, incoming 10th graders are around 15 years old. They're going to be pretty limited as to what they can find, employment wise. But it's unlikely that you know any of those, either, right?

And have enough money for new flannel shirts, men’s shaves (or not if bearded, which is a thing), money for drinks at hip clubs, ubers, new iPhones etc.

Interesting the way that anyone on this thread who happens to post a solution, dispute an assumption, or come up with what could be a workable solution is immediately labeled a homeless advocate.

Yes! Grooming rights are human rights! We must socialize uber, take it over and make it free for everyone!

Youse two mean that persistant ridicule alone can’t solve homelessness?

Many of us don't want to "solve" it as it is not solvable largely because it is not one issue.

No. Los Angeles needs minimum wage people. Retail is very important. You do eat don't you. Who you think is going to do the work in all the stores you buy from? So are services like working in restaurants, bars, hotels. These are big parts of the Los Angeles economy that must be done by SOMEONE, and you can't tell all these people to move to Sacramento or you will not have a functioning city if they all left.

Not only would people in Los Angeles not have their basic needs met like FOOD, the tourism sector would completely collapse.

Let’s say they get the help they need , Sacramento makes a lot more sense versus L.A since it’s more affordable . But I guess the goal for you isn’t to eventually get people self sufficient .
Interesting.

Also it shows you don’t have the taxpayers in mind . Totally fine with them paying double or more to House the homeless in L.A versus a lower cost area . Very telling .

There is also no mechanism to make people move to a place if they don't want to. You are aware there are laws in the US.

And why would Sacramento allow Los Angeles to dump it's problems on them?

LA is going to have to spend it's own money and resources to address the root problems.
