California’s Homeless Crisis: Is Institutionalization the Answer?

In this video, I discuss the Fox News story about Governor Gavin Newsom allocating billions of dollars to address the homeless crisis in California. My approach is to house them in mental institutions until they recover, and if they relapse, to place them back in the institutions. I question why we should live in fear of harassment, stepping on needles, and the risk that children can’t walk on the sidewalk, or that one might contract a disease from discarded drugs and needles on their own lawn. I also believe that cartels should be targeted by the US military, as they contribute to the drug and homelessness crisis in America. With all the illegal immigrants crossing the border from South and Central America, we should enforce stricter drug trafficking penalties. Hopefully, Governor Newsom will allocate some funds effectively. I am convinced that my method is the best solution.


The latest story from Fox News regarding the homeless crisis in California criticizes Governor Gavin Newsom's approach. A California Republican has argued that the state cannot continue to "throw money at the symptoms" of the crisis. This criticism comes in light of California's decision to spend billions on the issue, despite the state's financial challenges. The report highlights the ongoing debate over the effectiveness of the current strategies to address homelessness and mental health issues in the state.
