“It was the LA Homeless Authority themselves that said
For Every 100 (vagrants) that we house,
they are replaced by 120 (more vagrants) on the street –
that math seems to elude these people … our elected officials.”

Why don’t we just convert all the convention centers in San Jose into homeless encampments. Would be a win-win to have indoor tent cities instead of outdoor tent cities. Plus this would reduce travel within and to the city so it’s the green thing to do.

“Multi-family housing like this San Jose development”

Within twenty years, much mid-rise development like that likely will be suitable for dirty-job housing.

It’s a real case, not a notorious selective bogus case, of induced demand.
