I don’t think that’s fair. You can believe that re-evaluating the whole broken system from first principles would be a better strategy than just injecting more capital without needing a dictator. Strategy is more important than capital here.

@mayoredlee put one person in charge of an entire consolidated dept of homelessness for the very first time. That person has several decades of experience on this issue, looked at the system holistically & still concluded it needed resources.1 reply 0 retweets 2 likes -
... and if
@LondonBreed was pushing this Proposition, saying "here's my point person, we need this much $$$ to make an impact, here's the plan, I'm accountable"... there would be no meaningful anti-Prop C opposition Instead our elected officials are saying Prop C won't help.1 reply 0 retweets 2 likes -
London just wants control over the gross receipts tax increase process that is probably going to happen anyway in 2020.

OK. Why we shouldn't we allow her that control?

She wants control? She will have control? Clearly there's something wrong with that, logically speaking. Not the whole story. We need to unify the strategy to solve homelessness. Not throw money at fragmented inefficiency.

there is a strategy and it became more consolidated under a single dept just two years ago. If you care as much as you claim you do, maybe you should go to a LHCB meeting to find out more. https://m.sfgate.com/bayarea/article/U-S-homeless-czar-visits-SF-says-he-s-13164508.php?t=8df310c8b3 … https://www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/article/SF-way-ahead-of-goal-in-registering-homeless-13340287.php …

And how many organizations are attempting to help? How do they plan together? How do we ensure the efficient ones get the resources? How do we disincentivize waste? Finally making one department the head of this is not what I meant. That's such a low bar.

They all re-apply for funding every year with an application like this, detailing how they evaluate, place, discharge every person they work with http://hsh.sfgov.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/SF-CoC-Consolidated-Application-FY18-NOFA.pdf … organizations that are at the bottom of the list either lose or risk losing funding: http://hsh.sfgov.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/08.29.18-SF-CoC-NOFA-Final-Ranked-List-6.pdf …

let me know if you've ever seen a startup go through a 246-page application form like that one to get $500K-1.5M in funding

I understand your point, but a successful form doesnt prove that we are anywhere close to a global peak of efficiency. Likely signals the opposite.
