  • There's a proposal on the table to turn a former printing business on Kettner and Vine in the Middletown neighborhood of San Diego into a homeless shelter by placing 1,000 beds inside the facility. On Friday afternoon, about a dozen people showed up at the site to express their frustration.

    I saw something the other day about father joes having to close a shelter and use only private funds for a sober living facility which is nuts. If you can’t keep drug and alcohol abuse out of shelters they will be dangerous for the sober residents and community. Have separate facilities and treatment for addicts and the severely mentally ill so people who struggling with housing can get the help they need which is very different than the help the addicted need.

    How to stop homeless issue in America:
    Step 1: Fund 1 billion into a homeless sanctuary instead of wasting into an infinite cycle.
    Step 2: Allow homeless to prove homeless and proper evaluation and diagnostics.
    Step 3: Hire guards.
    Step 4: Employ the homeless to work very little work to ensure rights to stay at the sanctuary.
    Step 5: They get paid for their labor and get to buy their own food at the sanctuary.
    Step 6: When they are ready, they get drafted to a job back in normal society from the sanctuary, like fast-trip or something.
    Step 7: New law in which allows peacemakers to legally find a homeless person detain them and transport optionally any or all homeless to the sanctuary to start the new world homeless system.
    Step 8: Reminder the sanctuary must profit and make more money than they invest into the homeless,
    to proceed lifespan longevity of the homeless sanctuary systematic, thus approach.
    Step 9: Consider the possibility of the outdoor homeless sanctuary as a profitable manufacturing source, to ensure that what the homeless are working for is going to be sold, to then allow the homeless sanctuary and all homeless employees receive income.
    step 10: TL;DR,
    Basically IF a "Homeless Shelter" was able to gain profit by the homeless working inside it somehow, whether it be manufacturing or some other PROFITABLE Labor, If they complete everything they need to do, they can choose to stay and work.
    Or they can they can leave whenever they want.
    Step 11: Please understand that If someone has made over a certain amount of income in the last 3 years and already work in society they wont be accepted or able to register or apply.
    Homeless resident in the sanctuary shall be permitted to make purchases in the sanctuary like food they have a place to sleep there too. They can buy clothes utensils body health things, this could also be RETURNED PROFIT. I believe the united states can do this. You rock government of the U.S, I'm just trying to help. you guys could possibly consider. One last thing, even it could be a bus lines profit too, and beneficial to the homeless current or future resident of the sanctuary.
    They could work in a farm job in the sanctuary and they wouldn't have to worry
    about food as it would be growing right IN front of them over time.
    Field farmers make good money too, so this is also a possible benefit.
    Overview:
    A billion dollars could indeed fund a homeless sanctuary, and potentially much more. The extent to which it could help depends on several factors, including the scope and scale of the sanctuary, the cost of living in the area, and the efficiency of the management.

    The majority of homeless people are drug addicts (Tranq, heroin, meth and alcohol), have festering wounds, infectious diseases, scabies, viral hepatitis, smell of the most offensive stench you can imagine, and bring crime to our neighborhoods (physical violence and verbal abuse/car theft/vandalism/break-ins/trespassing/stalking/loitering/scavenging/defecating on property/etc.). I used to be idealistic/compassionate about the homeless situation until I lived in an inner-city neighborhood and experienced the horrific conditions that homeless people bring to low-income neighborhoods, many of which are “chosen” by policymakers as designated “shelter” locations. The residents of these neighborhoods don’t have a choice in the matter!
