Daniel Collins
So they encourage and enable drug use, then use the proceeds to encourage and enable vagrancy?
Some mighty fine civilization they're gearing up for.
Luke King
What's wrong with that? Anyone can become homeless, friend.
Jacob Lewis
Didn't a bunch of homeless people flood Colorado after the ban lift on weed?
Levi Roberts
It won't help. Junkies are junkies.
Tyler Long
pretty much. the appeal to move to colorado for people with ambitions other than marijuana cultivation / recreation got #rekt
Thomas Bell
How else are homeless junkies going to get money for their heroin and meth?
Progress!
Adam Russell
The real redpill is that you must help the homeless, only then can you better society.
Kayden Thompson
If you give money to the homeless, you'll just get more homeless. Not based at all.
Robert Rodriguez
How is that based? It's just a way to subsidize their alcohol addiction.
The money is supposed to help the state, not make it worse.
Jacob Ramirez
To be abandon the homeless because "they brought it on themselves" is to be on the same level as the liberal scum who are ignorant to those truly in need unless they stand to profit from it. Humanitarianism isa virtue and one should help those in need.

The homeless need to help themselves. I don't care if the whole city fills up with them, there's no reason to help them. No social security? No address? Your problem. There are ways around it. You just need to get off your ass, pull yourself by your own bootstraps, and find a fucking computer. I am baffled by how many computers are publicly available at a library and how homeless people only use them for porn or keeping contact rather than as a resource to help them locate and maintain a job. No excuses in America.
Aaron Lee
Have you ever been outside and looked at just who is homeless?
>mental illness meme
It's mostly drug addiction dude, sorry to make you feel bad but that just the way it goes.
Owen Price
>homeless people are NOT all drunks and addicts
Clearly never spent time around them or lived on the streets.
Jack Stewart
Well realistically keeping bums off the street is a service to their society.
I sure as fuck get tired of being hassled by homeless people all the time.
Angel Cooper
Moral signaling. Fuck you dude. I work for a living. If you wanna give your own money to the homeless, then do it. Don't force people to give to something they dont agree with. Liberal cunt

A percentage of homeless will never improve, this is true.
But without housing and a buck in their pocket they turn from homeless into petty criminals. The cost of crime might be less than giving them shelter and food.
Further, in America, you don't have the same social security nets we do. This means a lot of the homeless /aren't/ useless drug addicts, they're just fucked out of a job or hounded by alimony whores. These are people that actually want back into life but can't get footing.
These are people you can actually help and then generate revenue from, rather than having their lives be an increasing cost on society.
Everything is a cost/benefit analysis. It's shortsighted to claim not helping people is automatically better. Policing and crime costs the public as well. Locking people up costs the public. Keeping homeless people harmless is an investment that may be a good economic one.
Bentley Brooks
If you would read, $50m has already gone towards education and the money from weed keeps piling up, it's amazing.
Jace Perry
Ignore them, don't throw money at them retard.
Julian Powell
>But without housing and a buck in their pocket they turn from homeless into petty criminals.
A petty criminal is always be a petty criminal. A roof over their heads and a few bucks isn't going to stop their addiction or how they behave. It's just going to give them a place to stay for the night.
I'm fine with that, but I'd rather not use my tax dollars for that. We already have services that provide for the homeless, there's no need.

You aren't giving any of your money... Not unless some of that tax revenue is from your own weed purchases.
Yeah think before you type, dumbshit.
Cameron Morgan
>posting meme pictures You're already too far gone my friend, the Jews own you.
Carter Nguyen
How does North America even manage to have the opiate and amphetamine epidemics it has? Why not spend a little bit more of your precious tax dollars on prevention, if it's revenue that concerns you most..
Tyler Rogers

I'm trying to say you don't, and that the addicts you do have die at disproportionate rates when compared to the rest of the world.
>UNITED STATES 6.96/100k drug deaths You're only 'beaten' by a literal African country and an Eastern European country with a known heroin problem and a population so small it tends to inflate x/100k stats..
America has a huge problem with opiates, of both the street and prescription variant..
Daniel Hughes
Like the millions we spend on these "drug prevention" programs when we're in school? How about fuck that?
It doesn't do anything, you need smart people to make smart decisions. Can't expect total retards to make good decisions, can you?
Oliver Jenkins

Logan Ross
>Can't expect total retards to make good decisions, can you?
Maybe the retards are the ones making the anti drug policies in North America, because the US especially and Canada problaby by proxy have got fuck all to show for the 'war on drugs', even though it's been a continuous process since the early 70s... In that same time period opiate addiction rates and drug related deaths have been brought down to 0.6/100k, rather than the 2,2/100k Canada has or the absurd rate of almost 7/100k the US has.
Alexander Ward
Wow so they took one good policy and ruined it completely with a shitty one. Good going Colorado. You could have used that money for something constructive you idiots.
Ayden Perry
>So my change isn't enough, I guess they want to not work or pay taxes and get my tax return also.
>Homeless in Colorado are different from homeless I've seen anywhere else. You wouldn't believe the number of able-bodies early twenties men who would rather shoot up under the bridge rather than work. Disgusting, Colorado has become too homeless friendly and now it's being flooded. Meanwhile I have to dodge hypodermic needles and violent wackjobs on my way to work.

Justin Ross
Because a lot of the addicts are niggers and illegal aliens who don't even seek medical attention. Like most of our appalling stats compared to other countries, they're skewed because of these two groups.
Ethan Cooper
Oh your reading really is shit. Where did i claim i was a christfag? Dont like jesus, favor a bit more Muhammad, maybe zues?
Or is the jewish god your god of choice with all your oys and veys?
Jesus look at the time, i doubt this kid cam actually come back with anything substantial. Other than just deflecting the argument and using some ad homo bullshit.
Is school out yet kid?
Jordan Ortiz
>he thinks you need mor monee fer dem programzz n sheeeeit
Why should I give a fuck about thousands of my countrymen destroying their lives with substances? That's the prerogative, fact is I'm tired of caring about them and being EXPECTED to care about them.
Apparently in this day we're expected to take care of everyone when we can't even financially take care of ourselves as well as our parents and grandparents could expect to.
Julian Hughes

Jacob Roberts
>if you don't support the homeless, you'd rather money go towards importing islamic rapefugees
Even after I questioned why the money didn't go to schools and the citizens of Colorado, you still did that? 0/10 try harder.
Aiden Williams
I watched a TV show on Animal planet and it was showing the homeless camps in the Colorado Rockies . I guess the state lets hobos live in designated parts of the mountains to keep them out of the cities
Jacob Barnes
Except we both know how resilient homeless people are to death. If I was homeless I'd kill myself within a few years, no joke.
Jace Howard
>jesus is our lord and savior >im not a christian i swear The Jew is immunized against all dangers: one may call him a scoundrel, parasite, swindler, profiteer, it all runs off him like water off a raincoat. But call him a Jew and you will be astonished at how he recoils, how injured he is, how he suddenly shrinks back: "I've been found out."
Nathan Williams
You know, if we just executed the homeless, that would make less homeless too.

Which means your country has a problem..
>Why should I give a fuck about thousands of my countrymen destroying their lives with substances?
Because they don't give a shit about anything or anyone and end up costing society at large, not to mention their immediate surroundings, more than the cost of prevention would have been. Given you implement effective prevention measures...
>And look at that, I take one glance at your posting history and see you post in /r/The_Donald. You're just another right-wing cunt like Trump, I'm sure you hold a ton of wonderful views just like this one. I hope the people in /r/trees are astute enough to see your obvious bias.

Grayson Walker
>>homeless Americans are homeless because of alimony >Why does Sup Forums just say things to say things so often?
It's certainly one cause. You even jail men for failing to pay up.
Alimony doesn't exist in Sweden by the way. Literally thanks to feminism. Back in the 70s they actually believed that women could go it on their own.
