A San Francisco homeless encampment ie tents cost $60k per year per individual. That comes out to $5k a month. Camp includes toilets, showers, services and is considered 'safe'.

And I thought the encampment in Los Angeles was expensive at $2140 per month per individual.

Those are cost per individual and a tent. The question is how much to rent porta potties, porta showers and security guards along with a lot or parking lot.

$5000 per month is still cheaper than tossing the criminal homeless into prisons.



I wonder how long it will be before the Dems step up with an idea to pay these homeless people? $1000 per week sounds about right and the state will save $1000 per month per person. but of course in San Fran $1000 per week is a pittance.



What to do what to do?

What you really mean is taxpayers pay the homeless. Personally I would go with Darwins evolutionary therory.

Billions have been spent. But the government got it wrong. They thought the homelessness was poverty and those people needed help. Not so.

The homeless want to live that way by choice. They do drugs, hang out, and defecate on the sidewalks because they want to. (think "hippie")

Pouring in more tax dollars will just enable these people to continue that lifestyle.

The city pays for it, so why would anybody care that doesnt live there?

Proggies love their hyper expensive humanist projects, and SF is proggy central.
