Things are going to get worse and worse because Bay Area voters will keep voting Democrat.. how much worse will I have to get for a light goes on in their head? Maybe they’re just morons.
You are absolutely right. Honestly I am not sure what it will take before these folks stop just blindly voting for every democrat that is running.

problem with democratic politicians is they think they know how to take care of the group as a whole, they subvert individual accountability….with the amount of taxes citizens of Concord and California pay a homeless encampent should never be a issue….its obscene and completely a failure of Concord’s leadership
Apparently if we all vote Republican we won’t have any Homeless people. So there aren’t any Homeless people in Red States.

California has over 24% of the nation’s homeless but the state on makes up 12% of the nation’s population. It’s the highest homeless percentage in relation to actual population in the country. So maybe conservative states have homeless but not to the degree you find in democratic states, California, New York, Hawaii, Washington, etc. So maybe it’s time to stop defending policies that invite homeless to this state and open your eyes. This is not a right/Left issue but is the result of liberal policies that allow homelessness to be tolerated, (mostly junkies, look it up) So maybe conservative States are doing something right? Would you continue to let a child play baseball if the pitcher hit every batter and say oh give him another chance? Sorry time for change

Mr. Mojoduck: There was a good news interview of a homeless person who lives near the Ferry Building in a tent and says the authorities give him $820 per month plus lots of other benefits. He also makes extra money selling drugs to teenagers. Those are Democrat party values, not Republican. But Democrats each election successfully just turn everything into a middle school popularity contest and vote Newsom and party line. https://tinyurl.com/53fzthb2

So what the Democrats can do now is get out a list of illegal voters and then create fake mail in ballots.

Please don’t blame the Concord Police for the homeless epidemic and other things that make you fell sad; Police officers are Public servants, that being said, they are not babysitters for your emotions; I am a homeless person residing in concord, however you would not know because i maintain a grooming standard, and i don’t trash the place, i don’t do weird shenanigans in public with stolen shopping carts ect. The police can only do as much as the public will allow, so go to the concord bord meetings and express you concerns , because that’s the only way we as concordants can become great Samaritans on the same page, , a lot of individual’s would love to voice their opinions on tv but they are not going to be the change with the city, everyone else thinks wsell someone else will do it for me, thats their job not mine. being a citizen of a city means you have an obligation to basic leadership . that means going to the board meetings time after time. that’s what makes USA GREAT, democracy. On the homless issue maybe whomever is going to build on the naval weapons station should set asside a Jobcore like program but for homeless, o

The Bay Area should learn from Los Angeles on how to solve the Homeless Problem. They spent 160 million dollars on buying and renovating an Apartment building that will have 275 units available for the homeless. That’s only $582,000 dollars per homeless person. Makes a nice dent in the approximately 70,000 homeless in LA. Money well spent wouldn’t you say? Don’t believe me? Look up the Weingart Center project.
A much better solution: Buy them a hot meal, shower, new clothes, a cash stipend, and a bus ticket to Portland. A permanent solution at a fraction of the cost.
Further, you don’t have to sneak them in at night like the Biden illegals being dumped all over the country.

Such a bargain (sarcasm).
And, who, exactly is paying for this? Our politicians divide us into four groups: Those who get these lavish entitlements, those who work but pay little or nothing in taxes, those who are in the middle/middle-upper class who can’t get ahead as every increase is pay met with ever higher taxes, and those who are wealthy that pay the bulk of the taxes.

With no data at all, and just my observations to fall back on, it doesn’t seem like Latinos make up that big a percentage of the homeless. They come here to work, for the most part, and unlike us natives, they are willing to share housing and bills to get by.
Other than loss of tax base, I don’t think you can blame homelessness on illegal immigration. It’s its own separate issue.

Mr. Slave: Why are you trying to manipulate this into a race issue? It does not matter if the 2 million here illegally are all blue-eyed swimsuit models from Sweden. If you tossed them out, it would probably free up about 500,000 houses and apartments. However, the homelessness issue is actually more about drugs and culture than not enough housing units.

Biden and his other goons jumped to separate Russias economy from the rest of the developed world on purpose to destroy the current US dominated economic system and make way for a new one.

His rent was about 13 or 14,000 dollars a month to live in that big house in Lafayette. The Police and FBI found out about the guy’s drug dealing by going through a bunch of stuff taken out of his house. No wonder they wouldn’t say much about it last week. I got this info from an FBI neighbor.
