Do you know how much per day it costs to house one of these people in a facility? Fat chance of that. To waste one dollar on drug treatment is obscene in an of its self.

There is a lot of hesitation on the part of the government concerning mental institutions because there were horrid conditions in mental institutions in the past. That is why they were all shut down previously. The living conditions were horrid and abuse was rampant. There would have to be a nationwide effort when it comes to operations of these institutions. There are many documentaries about mental institutions, psychiatric wards and sanitariums and their God awful history, and it would be criminal in our part to just let them open them back up without any oversight. But yes, I live in Orange County which is next to LA and you are absolutely correct about many being too far gone. ✊👊✌️
I'm stumped why dumb bells like you continue to think that "Californians" continue to vote for this stuff as if we ALL are voting for these people. We have more registered Republican voters in California than you have people in your State. The problem is that there are also almost ten million registered democratic voters.

💯 "Inside Safe" has permanently housed only 440 people, less than 1% of LA's homeless, after spending $100,000,000s on the program, 70% of that money is going into the pockets of organizations run by the Mayor's friends

My sister-in-laws non-profit was recently taken over by a board of directors more interested in lining their pockets and making sure their friends financially benefit before the non-profit is dismantled. Unfortunately there is no protection for the organizations that help the homeless and the indigent from these people.
It’s always “mental illness or drug addiction” it’s never just the record high rent prices. Remember average monthly rent for an apartment in 1980s was $200
But at time people were making $5 an hour. Now you make ten time more and everything is 100 time more expensive. Don’t eat outside, don’t go on vacations, don’t go bars every week and cook at home. We the baby boomers that’s what we did. I haven’t had vacations for 20 years after my daughter at the age of 22 send us to a cruse for my 50th birthday. I cooked everyday. We took our lunch everyday and we saved and saved and saved and both a house and apartment building. So you want enjoy your life the fullest and you want us to give you a free place to live? Grow up you entitled mf. You don’t want to work more them 8 hours. But we worked 6 days a week and 12 hours a day and got payed $50. So stop wining and start working and saving.
44 thumbs up for illiteracy? How do you even know what this person is trying to say? "To go more up" -- can I ask which schools you went to? Just want to make damn sure my grandkids *never* go there! :(
Yeah, school and daycares, but they don’t care about regular people who freaking work, ladies who get on the bus, storeowners. It’s a complete trainwreck.
What's heartbreaking breaking and unknown to many is that many street homeless silently die completely alone, and their bodies get eaten by other homeless and stray animals.
Talking a drug addict to stop using it is the most ridiculous idea ever. Only an idiot would propose that and morons would say “ yes, thats good idea!” Intervention is necessary . Drug addiction takes over peoples will to get better therefor the are dying right and left on the streets ..
Putting up small, 10x10 structures on empty lots with a common area restroom/showers and a 24 hr security guard would not take very long to make happen. Other communities have done this. Then each homeless person is given a choice: choose this housing along with accountability and mental health/ drug rehab services or become incarcerated. People that are mentally too far gone will need to be safely and humanely housed in a mental health facility. We need to start implementing these things now, not in the future.
Yes but these communities for them need to be built far away from the rest of us. We don't need insane drug addicts and criminals wandering our streets. The community we would build for them would have everything they need such as drugs alcohol food Medical Care shelter mental health care Etc. They could leave if they are sane and sober and have a way to support themselves and a place to live. They have a right to be homeless but they don't have a right to do it on our streets and our public places.

Why don't you ask the fundraisers and politicians who have big homes and drive nice cars where the money is going? They bang the drum, telling you what you want to hear, but they are just like a corner lot used car salesman. I used to know a fundraiser. They're all the same.
take an open area ( away from the cities) and build them an area with infrastructure and move them there. that gives them there own area to live in without affecting the rest of us.
There is something called the welfare industrial complex or the poverty industrial complex. The money is going into the pockets of the non-profit and NGO executives. The problem will not be solved because there is so much money to be made prolonging and even exacerbating the problem. I do not donate to charity because I do not want to pay someone's high six figure salary and luxury lifestyle.
It’s going to the director of homeless services, coordinator of homeless services, homeless programs liaison officer, manager of mental health for homeless services, and on and on and on.
If city Planning Commissions had bothered to build low income housing over the last 30-40 years, we wouldn't be in this position in the first place, but NOBODY ever talks about that part... 🙄
That 7 tons of trash that Karen Bass didn't clean up on the streets while the poor guy got bullied by the city for recycling the dirty trash of LA streets. Why don't those city's cites the homeless than the renter. The poor man deemed mental ill placed in 51/52 hold when the homeless can be mentally ill anywhere on the streets.
didn't some employee at a company that got funds to help the homeless off the street guilty of embezzling 40 million to finance a luxury lifestyle for him and his model girlfriend
They’re most definitely is an agenda beyond all of this rhetoric. I used to work for the VA for 10 years, specifically in an area called HPACT. Its sole purpose was devoted to housing, homeless veterans, which they did a lousy job at. The state of California had allocated to them over $700 million to address the homeless situation. It is beyond me to understand the rationale behind the methods they’re taking to so-call address this catastrophe. With all of these empty, unoccupied, warehouses strip malls, and even some hotels and motels across this whole state, are you telling me that they don’t have the power, to change some planning and zoning codes to accommodate what they claim they’re trying to address with an urgency? These people need to be audited from the mayor on down. This money is going somewhere and is definitely not to the homeless. They need to also initiate an intense mental health component to housing many of these people. a high percentage of them suffer from mental illness, and even if you house them there’s no guarantee That they will remain. I’m not an expert, but even with the little knowledge that I have regarding this issue, it’s totally infuriates me that the people who are supposed to have the answers no less than I do.
People are tired of being overbearing taxes for people to breed sin. Working education can tear down a person and with everything so high allowing people to hurt people has gotten way out of line and it's sick.
What's heartbreaking breaking and unknown to many is that many street homeless silently die completely alone, and their bodies get eaten by other homeless and stray animals.
To the already wealthy people to keep their lavish lifestyles. The scapegoat is thse words drug's, and mental illness. That's not true at all. It's all due to human greed. Some humans do not deserve their wealth. And One day divine justice will be served.
Some do others don't. Shi* is the systems put in place to help do take a extremely long time because resources ARE being wasted on the ones that just take advantage of the system.
Thanks for your work. Please also make sure houseless small groups can stay together in Sec 8 apts. Many have formed their own little families, that look out for each other and don't want to be separated.
Most of them can't function. A job? They spend the day looking for money or drugs so you don't get sick. Paying rent and keeping a job is impossible. Nobody wants to see the truth.
Of course it's going into politician's pockets to fund their fancy car's, Home's along with anything glamorous and upkeep, Fancy Restaurant's. I recall about 4-6 year's ago when the city of LA was talking about shutting down the school's because they did not according to them have the money to keep them open. They then wrote up a bill that would raise the taxes. When that did not go well for them they all of a sudden found fund's in the DWP account. It's not rocket science that they are NOT allocating the money where it needs to be... The money missing was intended to be used for the homeless population that we have seen triple just in the last two year's. Nobody can convince me that every dollar was spent for that said purpose considering that we all have witnessed the homeless population triple. If the money had been allocated for the actual purpose it was meant for we would be witnessing a decrease of people being homeless. City/County gov does it all of the time... They waste the tax dollars and or money meant for specific programs and such and when something comes up they all panic and try and recoup the money that they wasted by creating a new bill to raise taxes etc... It's never ending, And all of these people live the high life while the homeless and everyone else suffer.
Seen a need and wanted to make a difference and so I opted to work for homelessness. Was told 20 ppl died before getting there. Once I realized the company I did work for did not care if people used drugs in the hotel rooms, I quit after 7 days. To date, I’m told about 50 people have died since then. My take. As long as upper management is getting a paycheck, they didn’t care. Homeless should not be short term. Long term is the solution. Just like Finland adopted LA’s plan, they took it further and made it long term. Ps. Skin Row should be renamed as, The Love Row. It would help remove stigma and it might bring more love. Everyone is deserving of love.
politicians are allocating more money than ever into homelessness and there are more homeless people than ever before. Obviously everything is going exactly as it should be, keep moving, nothing to see here...
non-profits only need to apply 5% of funds toward efforts to reduce homelessness. 95% of funds go to "managing" organization, by law.
THE SKID ROW HOUSING TRUST.
straight to their pockets
Yup thats what this is about its a turf war over corruption funds.
They need mental institutions because some of those people are so far gone, and that's the real truth no one wants to accept.
