Item on Fox says that Santa Monica, CA, has passed (or is in the process of passing) an ordinance that will stop the 3-times-daily meal handout to the city's 1000 homeless in the city parks. Naturally this is causing some people (although notably not "some homeless advocates") to kick. However:
The city of Santa Monica says it isn't pushing the homeless out. The city still intends to spend nearly $2 million this year on homeless programs even though studies show the money has done little to ease the problem.
Amazing how you can throw money at a problem and it DOESN'T GO AWAY. Kind of like the war on poverty, or the war on drugs.
At least the war on terrorism is showing some results.
