I have solved the homeless problem

I was brainstorming at the bus stop the other day and realized the homeless problem is easily solveable, and for not that much either.

What is the homeless problem? The homeless who want to move up need to a get a job, but that's impossible when you have no mailing address and you look and smell like shit. They need access to showers and a secure location to receive mail, at a minimum, to hold down a job. They also need agency. I am assuming here the model homeless for my solution is at least willing to work for a living.

With a small stipend, we could easily supply these bare necessities to homeless people. A post-office box can be had for a pittance, less than $10 a month. A gym membership gives you access to toilets and showers, another $10 a month. Maybe give them enough money to buy some new clothes, and a secure location to store them.

There is no reason this could not work, and it is ridiculously cheap. It's absolutely a bargain compared to California or New York trying to give every homeless person an apartment, free of charge. It's so cheap I could see it being entirely privately-funded. There is no reason to bilk taxpayers.

Tell me why this wouldn't work.

Theyre like glowniggers you run them over with your car

Did you ever think that maybe they don't want the same things you do? You fucking self hating white liberal.

The majority of homeless are mentally handicap and incapable of doing any job which is why they are homeless. Just look the other way user

The only people who don't want a solution are the people who want to make more homeless people.

Homelessness is a choice. Most are strung out on drugs and use their gibs for.more drugs first of the month. After that they sleep and pan handle under bridges

No. They are homeless because they are RETARDS no money or handouts fixes retards why do you think communism is fake and gay and doesn’t work

Actually its probably best to give them as much drugs and alcohol as they want and most of them will solve themselves. Its merciful.

But I do drugs and I'm not homeless. I don't want to be homeless. Besides do you know how expensive legal weed is? It has an ABSURD 21% tax rate where I live. Basically have to work full time just to afford that shit.

First of all, many homeless people do not want to reenter society and just want to be left alone. Those that do may have severe mental health issues and may not be able to hold down a job. Real jobs that aren't charity might not even be available to homeless people who aren't able to keep their shit together. Even what your suggesting requires considerable logistics for someone to access their stuff, keep their hygiene, tend to their PO box, etc. Someone with limited transportation options and poor mental health may still have a hard time keeping it together and in many jobs if you miss one shift you're done.

Speaking as a homeless person, I can confirm not having an address is a challenge. General Delivery confuses people. And I can also confirm I smell like shit. I've never been to a gym, so idk how that works. But truck stop showers are $15, so I only take a few per month. It's tough doing much of anything when you feel absolutely disgusting. I don't drink or do drugs, so I've got that going for me. No worries about passing a piss test. But the thing is, I just don't want to work anymore. I'm tired. I've put in 30 years of bullshit already. And now every HR department has a rainbow flag fucking Karen and their goddamn pronouns are shit. I'd rather just be broke. I am fine not being a consumer anymore. I don't really need money, aside from shower money and laundry every so often. I'd much rather stop contributing tax dollars into a system that doesn't want me to exist.

I'm not going to bore you with the details but I have fairly intimate knowledge of these people having dealt with them personally and through family. They don't want to work. They absolutely hate and fear responsibility. There is no fix for people that are running away from themselves and have given up. The problem is our entire society has failed all of us. The amount of resources and time it takes just to do the bare minimum is honestly too much.

If you ever looked back on history and wondered why our ancestors were slaves, peasants, paupers or princes, its' because it worked. Structure isn't just implied in the old ways, it's explicit. Look at tribal life. It was simple. Look at Northern European life, it was simple. Life now is complicated. In fact, you could argue that homeless are the ones who have decided not to play by the shitty rules imposed upon us and are the only ones actually winning.

>But the thing is, I just don't want to work anymore. I'm tired. I've put in 30 years of bullshit already. And now every HR department has a rainbow flag fucking Karen and their goddamn pronouns are shit.
I feel your anger, but I would rather have a roof over my head and disposable income than live on the streets. Isn't that worth the hassle?

Turn homeless people into Map hunters

Try getting a cheap gym membership. Something like planet fitness is $10/month and available all over the country. Unlimited showers! You can also exercise which would probably be good for your mental heatlh.

>no reason this couldn't work
>assumes all homeless want / are capable of holding a job even if they did get a shave and a shower
oh look it's a typical delusional leftist who wants to virtue signal

people are homeless usually because their family collapsed and they got sick or fell into an addiction. and when you've got the blues, you're thinking evil...so a lot of them end up doing evil and it becomes them. how are you going to fix that? they have to fix that. they have to want to fix that. some of them don't want to fix that.

you don't know them. you don't want to know them. that means you can't fix them and you don't really want to fix them.

the truth is that all you want is to control the money that would be stolen to empower this initiative.

this pic explains a lot about canadians.

i can confirm. it is true what they say, exercise does in fact produce endorphins, it's your brain's reward system for doing something that benefits the host body, which the brain depends on for survival. only in modern times we have short-circuited the endorphin response with porn and sugar, which is why society is broken.

It's really not worth it. I've tried, but these people are insufferable. I'm near Portland, so that should explain it. Homelessness is the lesser of two evils.

Good God man. You must get out of there. I'd say come to Arizona, but the homeless don't do well here. It was 101F today.
Somewhere warm, and conservative, would be better for you.

doesnt solve shelter

I looked into it a while back, and they wanted a year contract with payment up front so I didn't go through with it. I agree I should probably go back, it's still cheaper than truck stops. Tbh, I'm scared of gymbros. I'm a scrawny twerp.

Those problems are all solvable when you're homeless. The real problem is that you wound up that way because something deep inside you put you at odds with society. Even if you go full leftard and give them a place to live their homelessness goes deeper, and can't be erased with money.

>What is the homeless problem? The homeless who want to move up need to a get a job, but that's impossible when you have no mailing address and you look and smell like shit. They need access to showers and a secure location to receive mail, at a minimum, to hold down a job.
This already exists you just don't know about it.

Why the influx of plebbitors?

small portable, lockable shed things. some guy in LA i think makes them. they're on casters, big enough to lay down in, have a door and window. the key is giving them privacy and some security in their possessions.
i admit it's not a fullproof problem but the two most important things to getting any job is a mailing address and being clean.

They are mentally ill. That's why they're homeless. A shower isn't going to cure their mental fucking illness.

Homeless shelters typically allow you to use them as an address

Ok let's do a trial run and you personally can buy all that shit for me every month for a year. You gonna do it?

There are homeless people that lay down at my local CVS right fucking under the "for hiring" sign.

The are in walking distance of the library that has free internet access so they can submit resumes and research government assistance. Our city offers free cell phones with free internet access, mobile showers that you can call, special tax discounts to companies that hire homeless, EBT that gives both food stamps as well as cash you can spend anywhere you want with extra rates given to the poor and homeless.

AND THEY DO NOT FUCKING DO ANYTHING. They have nothing but time but they won't spend two hours to research this shit. They will sit there under the "for hiring" sign begging for money.

Homeless people are homeless because they are stupid and lazy from having failed DNA.

>I am assuming here the model homeless for my solution is at least willing to work for a living.
And that’s where everything falls apart
Anyone who is still homeless, wants to be homeless, or more accurately wants to do drugs
If they didn’t do drugs, they could get into any one of the million programs and shelters that exist

I get a bit depressed sometimes, and I have social anxiety. That's no reason to assume I'm a fucking psychopath.

i might but i wouldn't want to administrate such a program. i'd be out $240+clean clothes which is not exactly debilitating.

Yes. These people are solving problems with solutions that already exit and have already been tried because they are retarded.
That is leftism.
Next we'll hear about how they just need more money.

Big cities have tons of resources to help the homeless. Not just shelters, job placements and such. The problem is, many of them are on drugs which means it's useless to help them. They go back to their old ways and don't remain sober and they lose their job and it's an endless cycle. Lots of them eventually have mental issues so what's the point of giving them some shitty job when they will go nuts and be fired in a few weeks? Like many in leftists cities, they don't want to work. They would rather push their cart, live in a tent...their last shitty remaining days.

i think every person should spend a week with a homeless person to understand just how broken these people are fundamentally and how not having enough money is the least of their problems.

>If they didn’t do drugs, they could go hang out with druggies outside of the shelter... because inside is full.

Gymbros are actually pretty cool and supportive, in spite of how they are portrayed in media. Everyone's there because they want to improve themselves. Worst case scenario you keep to yourself and everyone ignores you. But you might even make friends and find people with similar viewpoints as you. Also a lot of people at a gym are just normal folks with average bodies who are there for a quick workout after work so there's no expectation to be extremely fit or anything.

you're doing something to an invasive migratory species something that is not to be advised.
these itinerant humanoids need their exercise and routine just like gym-goers. most gyms are slightly out of reach to public transit and the actual gym patrons bemoan someone buying 100 hoboes yearly passes. do they get a free subway sandwich every day too?

I'm a libertarian dude, look at the flag. I want to keep costs low as possible and open it up to private fundraising rather than asking taxpayers to foot the bill. The cheaper it is the easier it is to keep it private.

Alright what's your email? let's work it out

Give them your house then faggot, see how long before they rip the doors off and burn bonfires in the loungeroom

Homeless people aren't homeless because of lack of money
They're homeless because their brains are literally broken and so nobody wants to interact with them
The vast majority of homeless people are crazy because a normal poor person understands how to use the massive social safety net we have in america
Insane people however will shit their pants and pull our their teeth under a bridge and get 30 dollars a day panhandling so they can buy drugs
“homelessness" isn't caused by a lack of homes, it's caused by a lack of asylums

I know what you're trying to say, user.
BumFights.

like i said i can't vet you, anyway i don't want to. i would only be willing to make a donation, and it's my idea so i get to make the rules. but first the program would need an administrator.

Yeah I did notice after I shit on you that you said privately funded. Seems like a great idea dude. I'd donate to something like that. The gyms might try to prevent you from signing people up and shit though, honestly. can't imagine they want a line of homeless people waiting for showers every day while people are actually trying to work out. Still, admirable idea and you should try it

I'm the homeless guy in this thread faggot. I think my ID keeps changing because my phone is smashed.
