[quote=Anonymous]San Francisco is lost. What a disaster and a disgrace. San Francisco’s homeless epidemic is a result in large part of the familiar problems of drug addiction and mental illness. But a particular problem is the refusal to prosecute drug crimes. In 2014 California’s Prop. 47, which was backed by Gov. Gavin Newsom and other progressives, effectively decriminalized drug use and shoplifting. Localities can’t use the threat of jail to induce addicts to receive treatment. Democrats in Sacramento plan to ask voters next year for approval to borrow $15 billion more to reduce homelessness. Only a progressive could imagine that will this work any better than the last tens of billions. How about instead repealing the misconceived law that is fueling the problem? https://www.wsj.com/articles/why-san-francisco-is-a-homeless-mecca-drug-prosecutions-treatment-344aac97[/quote]
