Yeah, Hunters Point, you mean where they brought the ships from WWII to have all the RADIATION removed? It's not like radiation goes away after a little time. NO WONDER no one wants it. What was the niners response? I think it was "no fuc*in' way!"

@rash1041 OMG be realistic. Yes Im fasting after losing my appetite to argue with your amazing wit and sound arguements. Your dodging of the issues and pipe dream of saving everyone without a sound arguement and resorting to name calling. Nice work. Maybe the Government can help you. Apply to Financial Aid and go back to college. Then you can figure out how to solve this problem other than comment on somebody who knows where he stands.

@rash1041 again its you that has been pointing the finger. Im the foolish, wrong and "right winger" all assumptions by you. I am done, but remember what you wrote " aid in the form of basic services, what's more basic then a place to sleep and something to eat?" You said it not me. Well if it's "Right Wingery" then answer the question. Your "Left Wingery" is typical. Use taxpayer money for projects that dont represent that "taxpayer".

@dschmidty32 Sorry, one more thing again. Did you just say that food doesn't fall under "basic" needs??? I'm not a doctor, but I'm pretty sure your life will end without basic sustenance, but I don't know, maybe you're aware some some fasting technique that the rest of us have yet to discover.

@dschmidty32 Please, this is typical right wingery. You act as if I'm saying that every one deserves a free sprawling estate. Sharing a roof with possibly 100's of other down trodden is hardly an incentive to be homeless. It is the human thing the American thing to do to provide them a place away from the elements...unless you think that America is about letting people freeze on the street in the winter. This county treats war prisoners better than that and that cost you money too by the way.

[dschmidty32]

@rash1041 Okay, so since im "Wrong" everyone should get housing for free? Since im "Foolish" Everyone should be fed? These "basic" services are probably the biggest chunk of change somebody that works has to pay for. As for Citizenship nobody is denying anybody the basic rights of a human being. Nowhere does it say free housing, free food, and free subsidies. So your backwards mentality works for none of that. Have fun explaining how you would pay for all these great programs.

[rash1041]

@dschmidty32 Sorry but one more thing. You have also mentioned private charities twice as if somehow because a charity is private it doesn't cost the tax payer anything. That is also not true. Just about every non-profit or "charity" receives a government subsidy of some kind. From tax breaks to grants it all cost the government (we the people) money. Unless you're a billionaire organization that operates not for profit and denies all tax breaks. Good luck finding that one.

[rash1041]

@dschmidty32 To say that homeless people are given a reward for being homeless is just a foolish point to try and argue. As for your point about gov. aid in the from of basic services, what's more basic then a place to sleep and something to eat? And as for the "tax payers" part, you are again wrong. Being homeless doesn't strip you of citizenship. You might not like your tax dollars going to homeless, but I don't like war. Neither of us gets to pick how our personal dollars are spent.

[dschmidty32]

@rash1041 "Incentives" as in getting money by the government and receiving aid/housing for free. My point is that the government is to provide the basic services for "Tax Payers". Not trying to fix peoples personal problems and issues. Private charities are for people to choose what they want to help.
