2. Most homeless aren't visable. They are on a friend or family member's couch. We aren't talking about them...
3. Drugs are a huge issue, but there doesn't seem to be a consensus on how to deal with it. The Right just wants to arrest and the Left talks a good game but their results are pretty much null.
4. Mental issues. Again, the Left talks a good game but zero will happen until these people can be put into a psych ward for an extended amount of time. The Left HATES this idea, and I get it. But what else are you going to do?
Drug users and mentally unstable people aren't gonna change based on you giving them a studio apartment. It might make you feel good, but it doesn't change the dynamics in a city much.
So will the west coast or basically any large city in America deal with this issue? No.

Uh, number 4. The RIGHT hates it, not the left.
Hell, cant put your voting base in the nut house.
