For someone with the means to reach infinite corners of the globe he’s so out of touch with the world
Now that cannabis gets legalized you need a new way to fill the jails...
It was only a few months ago this tool was complain about how dangerous the homeless were @ the San Fran Twitter HQ.
Musk is pushing for drastic federal budget cuts targeting programs for vulnerable populations
Billionaire cuts services for the poor. Bears continue to shit in the woods. What next? The sun rises in the morning?
Boycott Tesla. Loss of money is all he understands.
The rest doesn't mean shit to him.
None of that matters. He's actually got all the money in the world and positioned himself to suckle off the government's teat.
Such ignorance. Has he never been down the CA coast? Homeless along the highways, on the beaches, 40,000 in LA alone.
He has, he knows but fascists like Leon use language to attack people who believe words have meaning and convey meaning and aren't just weapons.
He knows he's wrong and despised but he doesn't care because he's convinced himself we are not people.
What complete and utter morons. Just like the majority of American voters.
Isn't this just the exact opposite of the de-institutionization that happened during Kennedy back in the 1960's? Which Reagan then ruined in the 1980's by defunding the programs that supported the people who would previously be housed in a mental institution that were put forth by Carter?
Feels like it's just admitting Reagan fucked up. But trying to fix it by spending government money on rebuilding the mental institution system. Doesn't make any sense.
Yes, Regan fucked up. Yes we need to rebuild the mental institution systems and we should be spending a hell of a lot of tax payer money to ensure those institutions serve their populations in a humane manner. Most homeless have mental health issues and the US has very little resources for these people. Drug rehab facilities should be free to users and well funded by taxpayers, as should all healthcare.
Saying that homelessness is entirely due to housing shortage is not seeing the forest through the trees.
Let's just wait until Leon tells Trump the territory Russia occupies in Ukraine is worth more than Greenland in natural ressources. He'll even fight Putin to own this land.
