We would spend a lot more if they were in prison or an asylum (which we don’t have). Again, you have no desire to say what we should DO with homeless people in the most expensive housing markets in Texas. Which drives homelessness.

Endorsing life on the streets is inhumane and unethical. If you think it’s OK to allow people to live in squalor you‘re on the wrong side of history. Sometimes jail is the blessing someone needs to detox off of drugs. Normalizing this behavior is not the answer. #ThinkAboutIt

In the old days, if a homeless person came into town we’d chase ‘em out! Thanks for making Houston Great Again!

$1 billion a year hasn’t helped Seattle’s homeless population. Please do some actual research
