People can certainly gang up and vote for whatever terrible, discriminatory policies they want. I only warn of the consequences. Appearing to be hostile to business might mean a huge divestment in SF as companies relocate, leaving SF short on tax revenue.

I agree that no changes is only going to lead to a worsening situation. Here's an alternative: buy a plot of land somewhere, bus anybody camping in the city out to it, install border guards, blacklist offenders, set up enough temp beds to handle temp unemployment.

Or, drop them off wherever you want. Nobody is forcing them to stay on the plot of land provided to them. Just happens to not be in the city and since they were breaking the law, they won't be allowed back in the city without applying for a permit/visa.

It's not about having a home. It's about breaking the law. If they break the law somewhere else, they won't risk being imprisoned in or relocated & blacklisted from SF. Why can't we just enforce the laws already there? Why stop at SF city, why not home everybody in the Marina?

Since when is housing a human right? Who do you propose pays for everybody to be housed? Is food a human right too? What about running water? Electricity? 1906 was a special case, and I'm not saying no housing, ever. I'm saying, for a limited time, only in special cases.

I didn't realize SF signed on to give everyone in the world a free house. US courts don't recognize the document as binding. Even if you accept that "housing" is something that any person can demand of any other, it need not be in SF, one of the most expensive places in the world
