Time Text
California and San Francisco sort of think of themselves as progressive policy leaders.
The homeless population in California is greater than the next five states combined in the country.
Since I moved there in 1992, there were always more homeless folks in the Bay Area and in San Francisco than other places, but it's quite different now.
There are people literally dying on the street.
There are people using open-air drug markets on the streets.
When you are walking your children to the playground, that's what you're dealing with.
In my last few months there, three times I called 911 because I thought somebody was dead on the street from having shot up.
I mean, you could see the hit right there.
That's not humane, not for the person using, not for the families that live there.
There is no justifiable reason to have a policy that allows that kind of human suffering.
And yet, it just keeps getting worse and worse.
I don't know why anybody is following the lead of San Francisco and California more broadly, but they are.
