Maybe their streets are privately owned. Why aren't homeless tents set up in the park next to their neighborhoods. As long as streets are public streets according to your public administrators, their hands are tied, UNLESS THE HOMELESS TENTS ARE SET UP NEXT TO THEIR NEIGHBORHOODS. HOW CONVENIENT.

Homelessness has become an industry. The more homeless people are, the more money the homeless industry makes. The money given to the homeless doesn't go to the homeless, it goes into the industry’s paychecks and lavish conferences talking about what to do about the homeless. They don't want the homeless problem fixed because they would lose all the money (tens of billions per year) poured into the homeless issue. America is broken from all the greed permeating throughout local, state, and federal governments. We have a government problem causing the disparities throughout America...

The people in charge are the ones that should be worried about helping the individuals to be independent and productive again while cleaning up this giant health and safety crisis.

Left that cesspool of an area 1.5 years ago now, and couldn't be happier. Most people in the area are amazing, and I don't blame the homeless for the actions of stupid leadership. When you give people opportunity, they take it. Our rent was 3000 a month, with other bills we were looking at 5500, with no car payments. Many of these homeless people have no housing options when the state allows rent to get this insane. Ask yourself how you'd take living the worst day of your life, and then imagine thats every day for years. I want to strongly emphasize again that most people in Portland are amazing folk. I lived 15 minutes from the city in a small town and it couldn't be more different.

"We want normal lives" but wont get a job... i dont buy it. My neighbor just got evicted then stayed right next door with his friend then THEY got evicted. He literally told me he doesnt want a job and was totally fine with "staying at the park". A lot of these people think that way then scoff when you tell them to get a job. He lives off free food and charges his phone anywhere theres an outlet outside. They really have it too easy. What we need is to bring back mental institutions and keep the crazies in there and give them goals to be released. That being said, i know that there are people who become homeless under bad circumstances but those people will find a way to get off the streets quick. All these other homeless people who have been homeless for months? They are the ones who set up camps and destroy the area with trash and do drugs and start fires. Put em in mental institutions.

@PenTheMightyАй бұрын
That's not the government's property. I'm disturbed how people say "there's so much empty space!" Forgetting that all those buildings are owned by someone. It's not up to others to "like" or "dislike" it. If you didn't pay for it through consensual exchange, it's not yours to do anything with. Period. Everyone wants "social housing" but no one (especially the people asking for it) want to pay for it. Instead, they want to steal from others. If you have an influx of bums encroaching on the property and rights of others, it's a guarantee your government is just as guilty of doing the same thing.

Liberals support them by giving them money and in some areas, drugs. This is despicable. Hunger is a great motivator and a lot of these people would get jobs if they did not have free money coming in. The Right tries to bring back jobs but the Libs and Environmentalists scream that we are "destroying the planet" so all the jobs are in China and Mexico, where they are polluting even worse than they would be here with legal oversight.
