> You obviously need to address the core issues of homelessness first. But then what? Once someone has marketable skills, mental health treatment and is in a better condition to contribute to society, do you ask them to leave the city because there isn't anywhere they can afford to live?
There are plenty of jobs in the rest of the state or the country, places where you can get an apartment for a couple hundred bucks a month. Given a choice between living on the streets in San Francisco or working minimum wage in Turlock, I know which I'd choose.
