I think it was Finland that did that, gave houses to all the homeless, ended it completely, and it paid for itself by saving all the resources previously used on homelessness

@jherazob @pawsplay every single no questions housing program that im aware of, let alone every "preemptive and preventive" social program ever tried - ubi, free jealth care, substance supports, counselling... just a warm roof- pays for itself at minimum, sometimes multiple times over from alleviating strain on emergency services.

It turns out, human compassion does pay.

@pawsplay How did we get here? (he asked in a Canadian accent).

@pawsplay
Yeah, classic mistake. When they say anti homeless, they do mean anti homeless, not anti homelessness. It's not a war on poverty, it's a war on the poor.
@robertpi

@pawsplay "Funny", when I read anti-homeless, I also think of relief efforts first. :(

We tried that stunt with “the projects” and it ended up exactly like the last panel of your “oh I’m totally so smart and unique” meme.
