SF spends $150M on homeless and it's one of the worse cities for homelessness.

You really think money is the problem?

Am I alone in thinking that 150 million is not that much? When I was in SF i saw so much poverty and suffering I could not believe my eyes and I have seen homelessness plenty before. Build more affordable, high density homes and give them to the homeless for free for a few years with high amounts of care if you want to solve the problem.

I don't have the exact number, but if you divide $150M by the number of SF homeless it's more than $30,000 per person.

I would argue it's what we're doing with the money that's the issue, not how much money there is.
