Re:California Spent $17B on Homelessness. It’s Not Working by habinero on Saturday June 03, 2023 @02:51AM (#36174343)
It's not just inhumane, it's some wild ignorance of how addiction actually works.

It's easy to get someone to stop taking drugs. It's much harder to stop them from picking the addiction back up once you let them go.

Addiction is usually the result of other mental problems. It's a coping mechanism.
