[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hawaii actually is having a major crisis with all of the homeless people that were sent there. Yes, people actually bought homeless folks a one way ticket to Hawaii to get rid of them.[/quote] Guiliani (sic) cleaned up NYC by giving them one-way tickets on Greyhound.[/quote] Yes. That's been mentioned already in this thread. It was a failure. NYC has its own homeless crisis with families. They have a costly right to shelter law which seemed like a good idea, but resulted in the need to pay for shelter instead of investing in affordable housing or other temporary assistance options which are more effective for families. Then the homeless advocates and the city got into a pissing match with the state resulting in defunding of a big program. In short: nobody holds up NYC as a model for ending homelessness. If Bowser stays on track, DC just might be the model other communities follow.[/quote]
