Please show me where I said that.

This is the funniest thing about you people.

You say that, but then you mock the policies that would actually make a difference.

What are you for, good sir?

Uhh your words in literally your last post:

>People have literally been saying the solutions for the past 5 years: build more housing, expand the social safety net, improve healthcare in the city.

I'm not mocking the solutions but rather the delusion that any of this shit will actually happen and not be turned into another grift where the winners are the politicians, corporations and wealthy, the homeless get some token scraps, and the middle class (us) ends up paying for all of it and getting nothing in return. Free flying ponies made of gold for everyone would make a difference too, but I would mock the idea of that happening as well...

That’s not “free houses, free healthcare, free "social safety net" (food stamps, drug treatment, counseling, education and employment programs, etc).”

Oh okay, so the homeless people are paying for that new housing, healthcare and social safety net programs and resources? Great sounds good.
