Feel for those ppl. I didn't experience horrible stuff like other homeless have, thankfully. But I understand how crushing it is just finding yourself in that position in the first place.

Yup, and we've defunded the mental facilities and shifted to private (usually religious) funded shelters and food banks.

Can we start stuffing homeless people into rich people's homes since they have so much real estate available?

“Under Newsom’s direction, state agencies — including state parks and the department of transportation — would be required to prioritize clearing encampments that pose safety risks, such as those along waterways. Officials should give “reasonable” advance notice to homeless people, offer to connect them to local services and help store their belongings for at least 60 days. Local cities and counties are urged to adopt similar protocols.”

“This executive order directs state agencies “to move urgently to address dangerous encampments while supporting and assisting the individuals living in them.” It also provides guidance for cities and counties to do the same, which applies pressure on them, though they are not legally bound to the order.”

Yeah this seems like BS and a waste of funds. We don't have enough housing for them so they're just going to move around somewhere else.
