Correction guards call this 'poop soup'. Very bad if gets into the eyes.

Stick a porto potty or three out back, and have maybe one communal shower for each gender. Soup kitchen in the lobby. Fireproof of course, with tile floors and concrete walls. Cheap to build, easy to maintain. Gets 'em off of the streets.
It won't work.

Oakland's "community cabins" are small shedlike structures with a single cot, blanket and window that not only give the homeless a place to sleep but also grants them access to health care and links them up with a case manager. Though the city's social experiment is 100 percent voluntary, residents are required to sign a six-month contract to stay, but then they are on their own.

Since the program began two years ago, Oakland's homeless were given the choice to move into a community cabin or move on when their camp was being dismantled. So far, 329 people have moved through the cabin program. Of those, 209 found permanent housing while 120 others found themselves back on the streets. While ambitious, the community cabins have had mixed reviews.

"It's a band-aid on a huge wound," Candice Elder, founder of the East Oakland Collective, a non-profit that helps the homeless, told KPIX 5. "The city calls them community cabins, but they are Tuff Sheds. They are backyard tool sheds that people don't belong in. You're supposed to put your leaf blower, your chain saw, your tools in, not people."

And then you have people like this:

"I can't stay in no apartment. I've been traumatized. It would never work for me. I will always refuse it," she said.

They want something that we all have, with no rent, no responsibilities, access to drugs, free health care and of course no work either! I think for the vast majority, homelessness is a choice, for those who want better they will try and the community should support them, for the others, nothing will help.

I know that most won't ever do anything to better themselves. That's not my point.

It would improve their quality of life because they'd have a place to crash. It would improve our quality of life because we won't have homeless people sleeping in the park and pooping on the sidewalk. It would be at a minimal cost (with my plan; dormitory style housing with minimal amenities). And it would be the humane thing to do.

If some don't want to take advantage, fine with me. It's there if they change their mind.

Doused with diarrhea… punched in the head… pushed in front of a moving truck. The @NBCLA I-Team finds that attacks like these committed by mentally ill and drug addicted homeless are skyrocketing in Los Angeles. Here's our report. The video is graphic:https://t.co/qvXcIfuiSn

The homeless problem is one of the biggest reasons I left Portland. Parts of the city look like a 3rd world country.

I can't speak for any other city but as far as PDX is concerned, almost 100% of the homeless have absolutely no interest in not being homeless. Many are mentally ill, most are highly addicted to hard drugs, they all know when and where they can get hot food, blankets, water, etc.

Here is a story for you. 10-15 years ago a county in Oregon built a brand new correctional facility, spent something like 50-75 million dollars. It NEVER opened, not one inmate accepted. It's brand new.

Last year a wealthy Portland man bought the building/land for pennies on the dollar and offered to give it back to the city as a place to house hundreds of homeless. It has a medical facility, dental, offices for social services to operate...basically everything you'd ever want or need to help get these people back on their feet and become sober and productive.

Liberal activists protested so vehemently that the new owner told everyone to get f*cked and he was going to bulldoze it all. The homeless protested because they didn't want to be "locked up".

The left wants the homeless to use as a way to generate revenue for their pet projects, and the homeless don't want to be off the streets. It's a problem that won't ever be solved because they are adamantly opposed to a reasonable solution

Some details of the back and forth here, I don't have the patience to search for more comprehensive article right now:

Yeah the thing is a whole lot different than The Grapes of Wrath where people were in camps until some work could be had to be able to feed their families.
