    How does moving the homeless population reduce homelessness in society?

    Social Can homeless people be fined for sleeping outside? A rural Oregon city asks the US Supreme Court

    So again, your approach would do nothing to solve the problem and would in fact make it worse by constantly pushing the homeless population around and causing mismatches between shelter capacity and shelter needs. Genius.

    Right...is that why the GOP is on the record admitting that tighter voting requirements are for partisan gain?

    Same point. It doesn't take much to have a "budget shortfall" and need to close those offices. Again this happens a suspicious amount of the time whenever ID requirements are tightened.

    Social Can homeless people be fined for sleeping outside? A rural Oregon city asks the US Supreme Court

    And you want those to be arrestable offenses? Maybe one of those would survive a constitutional review. You're trying to fix a leaky boat with a hammer if you think policing is the way forward by and large. Even assuming those laws survive, you arrest someone and then...what? They get out of...

    Other way around (bearish on Intel), but yes he got permabanned i think.

    International UK passes bill to send illegal migrants to poverty stricken Rwanda

    If only there was a middle ground between those two extremes you've highlighted. Eh, oh well, guess not since everyone knows all policy questions have only 2 potential outcomes, and never anymore that that.

    International UK passes bill to send illegal migrants to poverty stricken Rwanda

    Yeah, that would be as crazy as colonizing countries and setting their independent successors up to fail.

    Economy The collapse of downtown Los Angeles

    So what do you want? A 3 strikes law? I don't pretend to have easy answers on this, but the 3 strikes law was pretty disastrous and ineffective. Not to mention simply imprisoning more people is unsustainable without sinking absurd amounts of money into more prisons -- and all for incredibly iffy...

    Not sure what minihomes have to do with homelessness given how rare they are. If you wanna give cliffs to a video, feel free too.

    Tech Intel's newest $350M machine: Big chip energy

    If only that guy could have waited to get banned until later this year, he'd have had so much more ammo since Lunar Lake is going to ramp slowly and there will be as much competition as we've ever seen in decades for processors.

    Economy The collapse of downtown Los Angeles

    Please point out the part that legalizes stealing. Again, what did Gavin due that downgraded shoplifting to a misdemeanor? I don't think you understand how propositions work. Not to mention I'm skeptical that tossing someone in jail for shoplifting is going to lead them to being a productive...

    Social Can homeless people be fined for sleeping outside? A rural Oregon city asks the US Supreme Court

    I'm skeptical of your knowledge of homelessness if you don't realize that the vast majority of shelters are closed during the day... What a great country we live in, we don't even need bootstraps or Rocky music anymore to solve systemic afflictions. It's mentioned all the time, it's just...

    Economy The collapse of downtown Los Angeles

    How did he make stealing legal? You clearly have never been to downtown LA if you think businesses weren't the Fashion District already. Gavin has also done more about homelessness than nearly every other governor in recent memory. The fault here lies mostly with the city and county. Yeah...

    Sort of. It's not that IDs are expensive it's not obtaining them is the issue. It doesn't matter if the ID is free if say, the state closes the DMV near you. Ultimately, the issue with voting ID is it's solving a problem that doesn't really exist.

    It could be, but my gut tells me that the venn diagram of those who want stricter requirements for voting and those who oppose a national ID has a lot of overlap.

    There's certainly a bubble of sorts post-Covid given that retail and offices have been slow to adapt to new preferences.
