Yes, I don’t want to not help the homeless, helping them resolves most of the issues with them.
But I don’t like having run ins with them anymore. I don’t like going to parks where they hangout, I don’t like having to step over them on the sidewalk, and I’m very happy I no longer work downtown where I was accosted by them regularly. I assume if they had a safer place to they would mostly choose to be there, which is why I try to donate money.
Those types of programs are a minimum bar to do so that we can all have nice things and spaces.
