Portland setting up villages for homeless with heat and electricity

[bnew]

$6000 for housing that supports 2 people

 

[IShotTheSheriff]

secure housing, mental health treatment if needed, then gainful employment should have a demonstrably positive effect on those needing help and the surrounding communities.

need more folks with this mindset.

my family was homeless at a point in time when i was really young. just my mom, sister and i. it's not always people on drugs and lazy etc.

As long as they ain't in my neighborhood or backyard. Gotta keep that property value up

Why do y'all keep bring up the cost of houses? The cost don't matter, we have the technology for cheap housing. The problem is the land

 

[Eternal Tecate]

at least they're trying something instead of complaining all day

Lol they go all in when the homeless ain't black​

some people are swayed by the cost argument.

those paying attention know that prior "solutions" were more expensive than just providing housing.

I guess you can say that they’re...Trail Blazing

 

[TELL ME YA CHEESIN FAM?]

Better find a way to keep drugs away from those villages
One bad heroin batch and it's curtains

 

[Isaiah Bradley]

typical enablers' behavior, more interested in getting praise than solving a problem

how will this effort avoid the same problems(safety/drugs/availability/accountability) of being in a homeless shelter?

Fukk Portland grehs...



Went from enabling to straight catering.



What kind of real life, help-you-put-your-du-rag-on-for-the-hobos type shiit is this.



Until you're actually in portland and see how bad the drug and homeless epidemic is there, you woudn't be all willy nilly aboot it.



Was there back in May and saw needles and excrement outside the bars. It was prevalent and was enough to have me avoiding it for the remainder of my breathing days.



.

what's your idea of a solution? shoot them dead?
