Quite right. Most social bandaid solutions are the brigt idea of the
right that sees no way it can actually SOLVE the problem so itr seeks
to avoid social disorder by creating buffer solutions.
The real solution to poverty, criminality and homelessness would be
to guarantee everyone a living income. Whether they actually work or
not would be immaterial. The problem here is doing away with this
neo-fascist protestant holier than thou crap and acting in the best
interests of everyone concerned, not just their sacrosanct
pocketbook.
