This is the kind of homeless guy that, with a little bit of positive influence, could become a productive member of society. We have so much legislature that boosts the cost of real housing, it's crazy. There was a time where you could build apartment buildings with 200-400 square foot spaces, think studio apartments, but without a bathroom, and maybe no windows, but it's better than living on the street, and if it only costs them $100-$150/month to live there, why not? They can be a lazy bum if they want, and they wouldn't bout out on the streets buying drugs for kids.
But nope, lefties came along and decided that it's inhumane not to have windows and to have shared bathrooms. And it's inhumane to make buildings with fewer materials and less insulation to cut costs. Then they create laws saying that certain exteriors aren't allowed, and you can't build more than x apartment buildings per year, and on and on and on piling on law after law every year... Builders and investors obliged, and they had to charge more because things cost money. The left never understands this. They are always so entitled, and they just kvetch when they see the bill, blaming the increase purely on greed as if everything is free.
They push for these policies and wreck economies and then blame the very people that are trying to hold everything together and make something of their lives. Every time they do this, the result is the same, and they never see the pattern. I fantasize often about colonizing a distant planet and only letting sane people that are worth a damn come with me.

Yeah no.
Agree. Delusional hopium retard poster.
I should have expressed that differently. He could be made to be less of a net negative on society. Just by not being in the street, those kids that asked him for drugs probably wouldn't have found him and gotten those drugs.
I saw what you were getting at. He's able to have a normal conversation and is applying logic and reasoning to his actions, even if one disagrees with his logic and reasoning. I feel like I could talk to that guy and we'd understand each other.

So walls covered in shit, and trash piled like a horder.... They cant HANDLE responsibility hence why they are homeless.

And with some sort of lazy bum job like taxi driving a few days out of the month, he could afford a place to live that's one or two steps above being homeless.

Nowhere at any point in time have people been able to survive off of working a few days per month unless they have a passive income, the cost of subsistance will naturally raise to whatever can be made from a full time job.
How many times are you going to express yourself differently?
I smell 👃

In San Fran you wouldn't even be able to get something like that for $1500 per month even with regulations dropped.
San Fran is economically retarded, a good example of what happens when people that don't understand economics... or anything else for that matter, are in charge
