    Somehow, treating vulnerable people with dignity by helping them out without strings attached helps our society overall. Who would’ve thought.

      But conservatism requires a lesser people to scapegoat and oppress. Could we perhaps criminalize homelessness, and instead of housing we imprison them, so I feel satisfied that they’re being punished for their god given misfortune?

        Couple with racist policies to ensure certain people are poor, that just sounds like slavery with extra steps.

        maybe keep the prisons to satisfy those punishment scapegoating types but demand reform so prisons start looking like free housing with counseling and come and go as you please but there is still barbed wire somewhere to convince them that its still a torture dungeon

        It is ironic that you are scapegoating republicans for this political failure of liberals, who also support the policies that are the cause of these issues.

        Liberals also support prioritization of private property laws over personal living standards.

        Only socialists support prioritizing human well-being and socialism is a bad word in the US.
