Quote from: TDoS on Nov 11, 2025, 07:53 AMThe pictures make the accommodations look nice. But is it meant to cure only the homeless people equation, versus the homeless and addicted to drugs part? Don't current homeless shelters exclude the drug addled, who then end up being just...homeless that can't have indoor housing regardless of whether or not "homeless" housing exists?
My guess would be they would prioritize, with women/families with kids getting them first, then non addict women/men and addicts last. Since there's bound to not be enough to meet the demand, addicts will likely be either on the street or in the nightly warehouse group facilities the longest.
QuoteAnd when the homeless have nicer pads then what a McDonalds worker can afford, won't there be some kind of backlash related to "be homeless and live better than working on minimum wage!" campaign? Which would seem to make perfect sense, the picture of that room looked pretty similar to my first apartment out of college, and I was making a couple bucks an hour more than minimum wage back then.
A problem of course, but most people wouldn't risk giving up their digs to qualify, since the waiting list would force them to live homeless likely at least 6 months to get a placement.
