    This is a perfectly reasonable thing to do now that the city has provided ample affordable housing for everyone and social care to help people overcome difficulties that should never have lead to them sleeping rough in an advanced society with easily enough wealth for everybody.

      As near as I can tell, the city is totally OK with them sleeping in the rough, so to speak, as long as its from 8 PM to 8 AM.

      They don’t want people lolling around the sidewalks out of their minds on fentanyl from 8 AM to 8 PM.

      Oh look, someone that doesn’t live in Portland and doesn’t have bullet holes in their home from homeless folks having a free market dispute in the street.

      Bravo take - I definitely agree that we should just fully transition to open street sewers to better accommodate our unhoused.
