What I'm saying is whatever "activists" are doing or saying is often an excuse for others to continue to ignore the ugly problem. This is not limited to one locality.

What I am interested in is long term support and funding for workable, humane solutions.

These things require bipartisan support at the state and federal level (rooting out many of the causes and aiding homeless prevention), and I'm pretty sure that's fucking toast.

What I am saying is is there is part of the activist movement (at the top) that is either incompetent or corrupt and have no interest in solving problems efficiently and often make them worse, because the incentives are not aligned. Problem solving would cut off revenue and salaries.

You're talking about a tiny group of people, inconsequential in the grand scheme. They are irrelevant distractions.

Shipping people around the country sure as fuck isn't helping.
