- Controversy is brewing over a San Francisco program that gives free alcohol to homeless people and reportedly costs the city $4 Million per year. Under the Managed Alcohol Program or MAP, a nurse provides alcohol to those enrolled and housed in a hotel in the city's Tenderloin district. While the San Francisco Department of Health says MAP has shown a reduction in calls for emergency services for the people enrolled, the program has reportedly only helped 55 people in the 4 years since it began. Critics of the program, including a member of the city's metro board, say it is doing more harm than good. KTLA's Andy Riesmeyer reports. Live, local news from L.A.'s Very Own, KTLA 5

THAT IS THE DUMBEST THING IVE EVER HEARD
💯
Kept 55 people drunk for four years and the program cost $5 million dollars? What are they serving 30 yr. old Hennessy or wine from Pelosi's vineyard?
Oh, it's just a boondoggle to pump $5 million dollars into a non-profit like most of these programs in San Francisco.
It is indeed astoundingly ludicrous. But not so much when you consider corruption, chicanery, and collusion. I would bet $120 that every human who signed off on this little stunt knowingly received benefits and bonuses. All at the expense of millions of fellow humans. 🤮 Disgusting. Embarrassing. Unforgivable.
You know how bright the mayor is.
The real QUESTION is whos keeping all our money?
Racketeering
The real question is, why aren’t you partying at the homeless keg get down?
Right they just laughing at all of us ..... 4 million when all they gotta buy is 2 dollar vodka bottle.
Someone should ask Community Forward SF since they are the bartender.
Joe Biden supporters
Who’s getting rich from poor people? Ask that before you vote
Ask the A listers. Hollywood. P😢😢r.
Not only does the city PAY the homeless😂😂😂 hold on it gets better………… THEY ALSO GIVE THEM DRUG PARAPHERNALIA AND MAKES ALCOHOLICS. OOOOOOHHH THE HUMANITY 💀💀💀💀
What a shitshow!

@@Eta30mins with our money LOL... clown world!!!!
I’M SHOCKED…. California wasting taxpayer money on the homeless problem!??
and you wonder why china has no interest in listening to the u.s on how to govern
California is also a doner state…
Which means we waste money by subsidizing the midwest….
Thats what oisses me off more!
baffled im sure.....completely perplexed....this THIS is astonishing to hear!! who...what....wth......i dunno dude....Im stymied!!
you Make it Seem like its a CA problem , its an American Problem , Ive traveled and Lived in every kind of State and Financial Environment and EVERY SINGLE State wastes Money for insane purposes , in Fact almost every single time leads to exuberance waste on the Politicians of Each Party . This is exemplary of why Americans is the only Wealthy Nation on Earth and thusly pays some of the highest taxes on Earth and STILL get HUGE Bankrupt Leading Bills from for example the Medical Condition . Even for those who are in the “ Hospitals have to Make Money too “ camp , the issue Remains that Americans have had their taxes used in ways that Literally NEVER Benefit the taxpayers to do very important things .
@@thunderboltpenetrator8498you would be Shocked to Learn those States receiving the Money ESPECIALLY Red States Fail to Mention that to their Voters while STILL wasting it on the Politicians and their ( not the Peoples ) exuberance . Literally biting the hand that Feed them . If CA ever actually Leaves the Nation those States will Not so Quietly go into Panic Mode and pretend everything is a ok until they hit the wall 😂 I mean Ive been to Red States ( and theyre are SEVERAL YTbers who can Literally show this ) were the towns are WORSE than some places ive walked in in Saharan Africa , and yet apparently its CA who has the Quite Literal 4th Largest Eco ALONE whose the problem haha Pathetic …. thats why a ton of those Fox “ News “ Hosts rarely if ever bring up the Fact that they Still Live in Blue States cause after alls their fear monger they KNOW Red States have No actual Quality of Life Resonance .
When someone asks me why I despise government I'll send them a link to this video.
Wtf??? Give a drunk alcohol???? Then instead.... why don't u give money to low income families not drunks!!!
OMG I 100% AGREE! Those transient bums 'gave up;,, on Life on Trying on Doing what people have to do. The Low Income Families are still families, w/ $5. m. dollars, they could get even a one time or two time 'pay the electric' and give them small chance to castch up.
They also have programs that give out free drugs and money.
Wer at
Did you return your Covid stimulus check?
More wasteful spending, I’m sure there’s a contract that’s getting padded. Corruption at its finest.
NGO's getting taxpayer money, 0.0001 spent for $100,000.00 collected.
And thats not just the NGO's but nearly any charitable organization you come across. You cant trust any charity.
@@BajatheChickenMan truth
Someone is stealing all that money
Newsome
Definitely! $5 Million,,, nobody even knew about it,, and 55! people got Free Beer,,,, Some evil 'Official' that takes that and spends,,,,,,, except God see's Everything.
Homelessness = 💰💰💰💰💰💰💰
🤡🤡🤡... Newsom city... Newsome state...
Not investing in Cali, not even living there anyways...
It's like putting out fires with gasoline.
What?! I'm working to drink Old Forester at night and these chumps are drinking Blanton's for free in a tent?!
No upstanding, hardworking citizen of any country can beat out corruption, collusion, and cheap cheating chicanery.
Who is responsible in that city? On taxpayer money?
Well, seeing as how all government officials and employees are irresponsible, the answer to your question would be _NOBODY'S_ responsible.
*Woke SF residents voted for this nonsense... let them enjoy their idiocy*
*joke
a grift benefiting whoever's on the alcohol purchase contract
If you can trace those tentacles, I bet Newsom is involved.
I'm in SF, they do not talk about this on the news or anywhere else. This is ridiculous.
Real question, do you see hope for your city?
@@valdivia1234567 not at the moment
Wtf did I just hear !
How do I signup for this program?
Want some alcohiggy, do yeh?
Hey, if it only helps ONE person... It's worth it.
Isn't that the catch-all phrase?
Wow, good job S.F.!!!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
It's so easy to waste money WHEN IT ISN'T COMING OUT OF YOUR OWN POCKET!😡
No surprise, Newsom lost $24 billion. And he still wants to spend more after his failure.
The problem that's worse is citizens accepting the insane behavior of the government. We should be out by the thousands every day protesting in S.F. and Sacramento.
20 million US taxpayer's hard earned money gone
Wait till you find out about welfare states.
Why would someone approve this program at this level of expense? Follow the money and explain why it's so expensive please.
For 55 people only. I was expecting 100k people per year not 55. Alcohol will make situation worse for homeless. They need recovery and mental health treatment. Those that volunteer to leave street and start life should be help.
This is a completely unbelievable!!! I can't get my diabetic medication, but they can get their alcohol🤬
Of course San Francisco
More government math on full display for all to see.
Pure insanity!
$73k per homeless. Why don’t they just give them the money. Or better yet give then hotel vouchers so these people can have housing.
👆 this
Half a million per person doesn't sound right. Even if it was a really heavy drinker.
I feel like alot of this money is being pocketed.
It amazes me when people still get surprised at $hit like this… if you don’t like it then vote the correct way and do something about it!!!
Wait a minute........Howzabout sum cigarettes too ! 😳
They wonder why homeless is not improving. Vote accordingly for a change. Time for a wakeup call to politicians.
I’m very disappointed…very disappointed.
only in California!
Next up is a trial program to provide weekly financial help for those that identify as bank robbers.
I don’t even spend that much money on beer, that sounds like enabling them
Dispensed by a nurse 🤣🤣🤣🤣 god damn
And then the taxpayers must pay for the homeless liver transplant.
Google mods on the warpath... Don't you dare say anything bad about the homeless people or Gavin Newsom😂🎉
Gavin Newsom, you had one job😂🎉
What a WASTE of taxpayer money!
That's it. I'm done. I'm moving out of Comafornia for good. Our government is bunch of clowns 🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡
alcohol is not a food. life has never needed it
As if we needed more proof this is a clown state.
Trying to prevent alcohol withdrawal but not the smartest idea. there are other meds treat alcohol dependence.
Wouldn’t those millions be better spent on temporary housing & treatment centers for the homeless with substance use disorders?
Billions already lost. How much more billions are you willing to spend?
What about the meth/crackpipes and syringes they go around handing out in golf carts down at skid row ? How much are we paying for that ?
This is down from the $250 million 5 people cost in terms of 3000 Ambulance rides I think I read in a Bay Area news outlet.
Can we cancel that program and use the funds to pay for this BS gas or power increase?! Like why does every household have to pay 300 dollars extra a year just to keep these EV charging stations from over ridding the power grid? Gavin Newsom passed that bill, we didn’t vote on that.
If an alcoholic tries to stop on their own, they can have a seizure that can be fatal.
Sounds like it's not my problem.
The gift that keeps on giving
THERE ARE NO WORDS………..
Alcohol “dispensed by a nurse” - that statement shouldn’t exist
More money laundering...
They on qwack not alcohol
Qwackohol
😂🤣🦆🦆🦆🦆🦆🦆🦆🦆🦆🦆
Blue no matter who?
These big piles of money. Someone connected to the alcohol industry made out big out of this.
How do I sign up for this program?!
I hope the people of the US see what Newsome is doing/has done to the city of SF and the state of CA, cause he does NOT need to be President of the US! This story needs to be shared and investigated!!
Keep voting Democrat people❤❤❤
Sarcasm is lost on many.
VOTE REPUBLICAN!!
Not surprised at all in the 3rd world state of California.
Democrats 😂
Hold my beer 🍻
I need a Lamborghini Revuelto!! …..and two weeks in St. Barts!
If govt didn’t give the homeless a penny
Things would be way better. Homeless would find a job so fast
PAY TO PLAY
Is it cheaper to hand out booze to prevent alcohol withdrawal than a benzodiazepine? That’s the only reason I can come up with as to why this would be happening
Unaccountable cash is a favorite of democrats
😂 how does thar help anyone? They pocketed all that money
Pays to be a bum
What's that background noise of a woman trying to speak
I was not homeless when I went out to the bar and bought drinks
Its always the same! All this money for the homeless to Help Them an yet nothing to show for the money spent!!!
Thought this was a fake story until I saw the broadcasters I recognized at the end. Thanks for sharing (not) as I'm sure my city, West Hollywood will duplicate this program.
😂 what!? Someone was getting a payout for the program
See this is why I don’t like living. Alcohol is bad and I have such a problem with it. Both of my adoptive parents are alcoholic and if lead me into being an adult orphan.
Democrats did this, democrats super majority has failed California for over 20 years, vote them out in November.
Gimme some beer!
What the hell close it down waste of money
Thats liberal thinking right there. 😅😂
The cities final solution for the homeless problem
What the hell else is newsum and bonta wasting money on. This is just idiotic.
wtf free alcohol
Wow I can’t believe this what the heck!
Damn, I missed out. Boo...
Is that woman newscaster getting off? 😂
Oh the absence of common sense!!!
good reporting!
Reads like The Onion
Well worth it when 55 people got helped
Voters voted for it. So, enjoy.

Wonder if that nurse was part of the pelosi family 🤔🤦🏽♂️
