      Portland, Bay Area people don’t have many options, ultra far left, progressive, left.
      Pick one.
      Winner takes all in presidential elections is pushing blue & red states farther apart.
      They should allocate electoral college votes proportionally to keep states in the centre.

      WELL SAID! Look at people in Chicago and NYC, everyone started complaining once they themselves were affected when other states, specifically Texas were sending their illegal immigrants up there in masses! They claimed to be sanctuary cities? They got it! And the people CHOSE to vote for them!

      Yes, he should go to the party that says slavery was a good jobs program. Or when they lose, they say they didn't and attempt a coup, right?
      Obviously, democrats have failed here and I'll never be someone to just "root for me team" and not be realistic. But unless you're a rich, white male, voting GOP is not in your best interest.

      ⁠@cassandra9699so your solution is to punish those who buy homes, for the price they pay for said homes? What an asinine, irrelevant, useless proposition. Property owners don’t set market value for the property they purchase. Their option is to not buy in a given area if there is an issue with inflated market pricing. Penalizing those who purchase homes does absolutely nothing to address the big picture issue. If we applied this kind of punitive logic to all consumer goods, no one would buy anything. Overcharging buyers for property would have the opposite effect you seem to think it would, to an almost comedic degree. You don’t solve inflated market pricing and lack of inventory issues by punishing end users. What next, the Robin Hood approach?🤦🏾‍♀️

      @cassandra9699what’s selfish about just wanting to be able to sell your home? It’s true by the way, that the homeless *are* indeed the selfish ones. They don’t know (or even care) about where they end and other people begin. The homeless’ refusal to accept help should automatically result in forced labor camps located outside city limits. Refusal to be a productive, and contributing member of society should result in forced labor. That way the rights of the peaceful can be protected.

      I’m continually shocked and amazed at how Portland liberals absolutely REFUSE to discuss the issue around central bank market manipulation.
      Now Larry BETA Fink from Blackrock will happily swoop in and buy homes on the cheap and rent them back out.

      No, not really being lazy. The reason why the world is in such sh*t is because this is what capitalism does by nature - corrupt anyone and anything (including the government and the federal reserve WHICH IS CAPITALIST by the way and put in BY CAPITALISTS BANKERS way back with Jekyll Island.
      Capitalism needs a housing crisis to make money and guarantee control. And it is true that zoning laws and incompetent leadership contribute to insufficient housing stocks, all those private equity firms and landlords LOVE jacking up rent on tenants because it makes them more money.
      Under capitalist modus operandi, if there is a shortage of any commodity, than they can charge more for it because a textbook in college on economic theory told them that is 'the law' - so capitalists have no incentive to create enough housing so they keep stocks artificially low to boost profits - and thus squeezing the middle class, including renters.
      Capitalism is in is cancerous cannibalizing phase.

      The solution to this crisis belongs solely to the federal government because if individual cities or states throw money at the problem, homeless people get wind of it and start pouring into the city or state. There has to be a national program that equitably deals with the problem of mental illness and homelessness that spreads the cost of the solution fairly over the nation.

It goes to phony homeless charities, etc. Every county in the US has social workers and social services. They have caseloads with clients. They would also go to visit people. Where are their social workers? Also, the dems have made them acceptable as if they are a separate class of person. Why dont they work? What is their story? Transients didnt use to be honored. They had to move along, no loitering, etc. They are coddled now. There are people who do need help. I see them. Sitting in wheelchairs, sleeping at bus stops, missing limbs. Where is THEIR help?

    Every city in the United States that allows homeless encampments should be sued by the citizens. There are limitless resources for the homeless. The problem is not a huge group of unfortunate people. The problem is groups of people 100% physically able to do a lot of types of work but are just too lazy to contribute to society and instead rather live life as adult babies expecting normal working people to feed them and give them money for their drug habits. It's truly sad and disgusting. It's time the working people fought back and demand these homeless people do something to contribute to society.

    Where there are homeless camps, the house value of the neighborhood goes down, big time.😢😢

    People pay taxes for government services such as public streets, police, sewer and water systems, etc. If the government is not upholding their end of the stick, then they should be sued. And it’s not like it’s a new problem and they haven’t had time to react.

      The lawsuits have already started in Portland.

    That mayor allowed that city to get destroyed. I lived there previously and was wonderful, vibrant, thriving. Now it's a train wreck.

    If you allow just one tent or RV, all hope is lost. They're all cockroaches that just infest and spread.

    I can't believe they can't just make people take down their tents every morning, it's one thing to let homeless people sleep, but why are they allowed to just take over property?

      We live in really evil society. The government can easily reduce homelessness problem if they give homeless once a day free room service, and free massage in late evening.

    Why does he have to threaten? Seems like many, many lawyers would love to get on this case. Portland needs to be forced to do it's job somehow. What a horrible group of people running this country.

    For the first time in his life he’s thinking of voting on the other side of the ticket? For the first time? Mind boggling.
