I am all for a solution, although I don’t know what it is. I am hesitant to offer free housing as the first step. If people found a way to exploit free drugs, they will find a way to exploit free housing. All that will do is allow more people to wander down a dangerous path.
Portugal installed a model that works.

They have human beings there. It's simple. We do what Portugal does (all of it). It also literally does what everybody is trying to say in this thread (carrot and stick / empathy and consequences, etc.).

I still am at a loss for why, literally everyone, can't just all agree, yeah, let's do what's already worked.

I feel like I'm taking crazy pills myself now. The one guy who quoted me just said "ya it won't work" and then proceeded to not give an explanation why.

Makes no sense. There is a solution. Do what's already worked.
