What do you want to do, give them a house? – because we closed down all the asylums. That’s where we used to house them. I’d rather give mentally healthy people the houses.
Yeah, sure looks like you’re doing GREAT. You only have the highest deaths from drugs under age 25 among your population, you can start the “We’re #1!” chant now…I guess…
Only Sweden and Ireland pass you in the overall drug deaths per population. You SURE are proud!
Then it’s clear you’re not actually reading any of the conversation here. Maybe go back and read the topic at hand, come back when you’ve got a good grasp on it.
This topic isn’t about housing, it’s about housing specifically for the maladapted, psychotic, drug addicts, etc. Many here are arguing that giving them a house would make them ALL BETTER and turn them into functioning, productive members of society…
Well we need to think ahead a little bit. We can’t take a mentally ill person right off the street and stick them in a colonial revival and expect them to maintain with the upkeep.
So the mentally ill deserve to be left to rot in the streets? Why else have a social safety net, if not for them?

That’s what we do in Finland and it’s been working great so far

Yeah that’s not great but I don’t see what that has to do with housing

Free apartments work for about 80% of people and can be cheaper than hospital/jail!
(And to be specific about that minority of folks, they are not able to pick up after themselves etc.)
