It's been 10 years since Seattle declared homelessness an 'emergency'
- Thread starter DerekJohnson
- Start date
Name one recent success story borne of a democratic leaders initiative. They have turned many of their dem run cities into hell holes with open drug use, murder, rape, massive crime, etc. They have virtually zero success on homelessness. It is hard to eliminate it when you are actually supporting it.
BO Care? It is the black hole that everyone on the right said it would be. We were lied to over and over by the rat party and now it is the predicted mess.
Defund the police? People lost their lives over this one.
Higher taxes? It has created pockets of desperation with its massive misappropriation and waste. Increased prices at all income levels.
Open borders? Hundreds of billions wasted. People losing their lives.
Redistribution of wealth? It fails every single time it is attempted.
Government grocery stores? Man Made Global Warming? Etc. etc. etc.
Please, name one initiative that has been a success. There has to be one right? I sure as hell can't think of it.

I don't remember it being that bad 10 years ago.
What's crazy too is that since the 9th circuit got overruled there's nothing stopping cities from cleaning it all up.
Declaring an emergency frees up funds for accelerated grifting.
Spokane just did the same thing. Total scam/money grab for the homeless industrial complex. Gets them out of having to follow budgeting protocols and contract bidding procedures.

There's no money in solutions.
Sure, my city cleaned it up as soon as that ruling was passed. It's still a problem but 1/10th of what it was.

I'm gonna say that you're wrong about that.
What solutions are you proposing?
Just keep doing what isn't working and re elect the dumbfucks doing it
And more money of course
We're at the nothing can be done stage of the leftist bullshit

Except spend more money.
Cut the money and enforce the law. They will move on down I5. Pretty simple stuff.

The fact that bums choose Portland and Seattle over sunny southern California tells you something

So, the "solution" isn't really to name the problem and do anything about addiction or mental health, as Brandi was suggesting. It's just to make the problem someone else's problem.
Nothing can be done

Obviously, something can be done. You and your gal Brandi are just talking about doing very different things.
