[quote=Anonymous]Institutionalizing people long term is *incredibly* expensive; even the small number of people we do that with now are a tremendous drain on financial resources, both the government's and hospitals'. It's much cheaper to do a better job of getting them into shelters; more temporary housing, faster access to temporary housing, more case workers to help them do the basic things they need to do (doctors' appointments, check-ins with various government agencies, etc) to stay housed, etc. Basically, even if you're fine with the idea of rounding up all the homeless people in NYC who annoy you and putting them in a hospital somewhere far away where you don't have to think about them anymore, you're really, really not going to like your share of the bill for that.[/quote]
