What does DTK need?

[bravado]

The west generally, but particularly the UK and Canada refuse to do anything reverse the decline of their decaying societies because doing the neccessary dirty work is "too mean". No, round all the drug addicts up and ship them off to some rehab facility and don't let them out until they're no longer addicted.

The anglo west are individualist societies with little annoyances called "rights". This is an absurd take and calling it "necessary dirty work" is pretty damn sinister, if you ask me.

We simply can not lock people up who have not committed a crime.

Even in less progressive places like republican-led cities in the US, they've shown some actual progress on this file by just building housing all over the place and removing barriers to building housing. More houses = less homeless. We could learn something from this approach and spend a bit less time delegating city and province power to charities and NIMBYs where we could just be building housing and letting people sort out their own lives in safety with a roof over their head. But we'd rather have these weird culture wars, fights over the sanctity of parking lots, and denying that the market has any role to play in solving homelessness...
