Homeless solution?

[arce1988]

 Uah has reduced its rate of chronic homelessness, by 78 percent over the past eight years, moving 2000 people off the street, and putting the state on track to eradicate homelessness altogether by 2015.

How did they do it?

The state is giving away apartments, NO strings attached.

 In 2005, Utah calculated the annual cost of E.R. visits, and jail stays for an average homeless person, was $16,670, while the cost of providing an apartment and social worker, would be $11,000.

 Each participant works with a caseworker to become self-sufficient, but if they fail, they still get to keep their apartment.

No way send them to CA and let Hollywood and all the lib actors care for them.   Rich can train them at muscle beach and feed them mutant shakes.

Liberal actors are only generous with other people's property, not their own.

Interesting. It's great it saves money but they should not be allowed to stay unless they "earn their keep" somehow.

I don't care if they spend eight hours a day picking up garbage off the streets. Just do something to contribute to society.

This could potentially be the start of something good.......

the problem is, in Florida they'll be given $315 a month in food stamps, $785 a month in public housing, and end up making more than everyone else working 28 hours at $8 an hour.

To the "homeless question"? 

[no one]

why should anyone be 'given' anything?

that $11000 is still coming out of your pocket.

this is entirely what is wrong with society today. handouts and free rides. want food stamps? an apartment to live in? great- for every hour of community service you do you'll get x amount of $ that will go towards those things.

see how many sign up for that.

This is far too clever.

Why so hostile chaos that's not very nice.

Besides don't bring a knife to a gunfight.

Arce...the truth is that only idiots are homeless....you simply need to think and be innovative as to exactly what a home actually is.  Fact is that anyone can create a set of living quarters for very little money.


Think I'm kidding...check this out


Dave, Cheryl and our cat Basil living in a 16X20 canvas wall tent for two winters in Maine. The two years were tough - the winter of 2010-2011 was one the worst for our area in 30 years. But it was worth the struggle and sacrifice. When we moved in we had nothing left in our bank account. But we were able to use the money we saved in living expenses in two years to make a downpayment on an owner-financed home and launch a small business (January House Books - our first book, Demons of Druid Oaks, is now also on kindle
). I think it proved to us that even in a bad economy, you can find creative ways to get ahead, if you are willing to take a big risk and give up nearly everything but your dream for a while. For more details on setting up a wall tent for winter living,
