This guy has never been anywhere near an encampment. One of the ones near me is 15 yards from a rather clean public bathroom.
I regularly see these assholes shitting in the middle of the road instead.

Section 8 is profitable, the number of apartments avaliable is severly low, it’s low yield investing, so people don’t invest in it.
If you don’t want them shitting in the street, Maybe you need a city ordinance that all housing companies that rent or lease more than 5 properties must be section 8 available. Maybe you need a law that section 8 isn’t to be the red tape nightmare that it VERY INTENTIONALLY is, as Republicans who can’t eliminate these programs often settle for making them so absurdly difficult to use that they might as well be eliminated. Maybe it can be a simple program that’s easy to use, then the profitability will seem more attractive, as it’s already a profitable program according to rental investment companies.
Overdose prevention sites are still just treating the symptoms, but at least in a way that doesn’t attack the victims. Offer free meaningful rehab treatment to addicts like China did. They went from 30% of their population addicted to opium to nearly 0 within a few short years this way. We shouldn’t be encouraging destructive drug use, nor should we be criminalizing victims of drug companies and criminal organizations.
“But I don’t want to fix the problem, I want to punish people.” A conservative, probably.
