The executive order urged officials to “address unsanitary and dangerous encampments within their communities and provide people experiencing homelessness in the encampments with the care and supportive services they need.” The issue spans 88 cities in Los Angeles County, which has a combined homeless population of over 75,000 people. The state of California has an estimated 180,000 unhoused people, however, there are less than 72,000 available shelter beds.

This has to be the first time Ive ever seen a Governor personally cleaning up a homeless encampment. Imagine waking in a tent and the Governor of California is tearing down it down.

It costs over 100,000 to keep somone in jail. A talk show host suggested it would be better to pay 2000 rent for each. Oh but then they dont have more bodies for slave labor in the jails.
