San Francisco Pays $16.1 Million to Shelter 300 Homeless IN TENTS!
[link to pjmedia.com (secure)]


California is in the midst of a self-induced homelessness crisis that shows no sign of abating anytime soon. The crisis is especially acute in San Francisco, where Mayor London Breed has erected three tent cities to house about 300 homeless people.

The cost? About $61,000 a year per tent. All told, the cost of the program is $16.1 million. I guess in San Francisco, even the tents are first class.

The city is running a $650 million deficit and the tent city isn’t eligible for reimbursement by the government, so that money comes out of city coffers. If the homeless were housed in a first-class hotel, the federal government would gladly reimburse the city for that, but not for a few measely tents?

San Francisco counts about 6,400 people as homeless, although that doesn’t include people living out of their cars, or the thousands who flit from temporary shelters to relative’s residences to friends and neighbors — anywhere they can find a place to lay their body down. Many of these people have jobs that don’t pay them enough to live within 50 miles of San Francisco.

The city was basically forced to adopt the tent idea because most homeless shelters closed down due to COVID restrictions. But $5,000 a tent? Certainly, allowances should be made but that is a ludicrous amount of money to spend on any group, regardless of their hard-luck circumstances.

I used to go (before Covid) visit a long time friend and his OG hippie mom out there for a weekend. Free lodging and he'd take us out to some good food in the city. Good times when I got a chance to get away.

But man what a heartbreaker driving in past the bridge. You'd see the tents just stacked up under the overpass, it would take you minutes at full speed to drive past it and you'd get struck by the humanity of it all out there.

I'm not here to bash on homeless people, don't get off fucking with people who are at that low of a standard of living in this world. But the problem is real, it's bad.


I wouldn't wish it on anyone, that's not the way. Imperfect solution to "deal" with this problem isn't going to work but if you try to do it with any sense of really having a chance to make an impact you're called a socialist.

Sick society either way, going downhill so fast just exacerbating the problem on both ends. Try to fix it with radical solutions you're a liberal baby eater. Let it be and let the problem fix itself you're a disgusting city full of disgusting homeless indigents.

No compassion anywhere to be found. The church? They'll feed you though. People say some nasty stuff about the Salvation Army or Loaves and Fishes or Food Not Bombs but these are people not wasting their time pissing on the heads of the dregs of society and telling them it's raining.

Have mercy on us, we can do better but you have to stop with the bipartisanship. George Washington warned about this and other things, he wasn't perfect but he had some perspective.

You are so correct and even the individuals/agencies responsible for investigating things like this are corrupt as well such as our FBI! Our country is toast. I am just waiting for another country to attach us now since we have so weak a leadership.

Here's an idea.

-300 homeless people, save 16m.

100000 new immigrants arriving at the border?
-100000 immigrants, save 1.6 trillion

6 billion in Asia?
-4 billion, save 400millionzillion

The people most guilty for this crime are the citizens of Sanfransisco.

For allowing it to happen.

I go to every one of my city council meetings. And I let them know that we know where they live. My city does not have any problems because they know someone will pop out of the bushes at night if they start doing Criminal shit.

So everyone in sanfransisco isn’t gang stalking their supposed elected officials, then they’re all guilty.
