  • Giving them actual houses would be idiocy, they would be destroyed. Many have been put in dive hotels but it’s been tapering off, the funding dried up. Personally I’d say build managed campgrounds with nice community restrooms and shower houses. Have a small paid staff to maintain the showers and restrooms and enforce basic codes - no building structures, no excessive junk or trash etc. It would provide basic shelter opportunity without costing crazy amounts. A lot of working people can’t afford apartments now, let’s fix that before we throw more money towards people who can’t or won’t work. Hell, I know people who choose to live in campgrounds full-time as their preference.










  • My wife has been a school kitchen manager for a number of years. Lunch debt is such bullshit. We funded free school meals for all students for a year during covid and it cost $10 billion. We could have funded school lunches for many years just with what we’ve sent to the Ukraine. We don’t have it because we have no way to influence the people we elect to do the things we value. It is clearly not something our elected representatives value.
