[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Instead of forcing people to go, give them incentives to move to more affordable areas and provide them with jobs and healthcare there. Currently, advocates are giving homeless to stay here even though its neither working homeless nor taxpayers, criminal elements sure are benefiting or "non-profits" who depend on "advocacy" to make their own living and careers.[/quote] The “more affordable” areas are struggling enough—that’s why they’re affordable. They don’t want a bunch of homeless people dumped on them. Such areas are easy targets for schemes like this due to their lack of resources to fight back with, and are therefore very protective of themselves (not fans of outsiders, and insular).[/quote]
