@moonman @awl oh, and we need to start more heavily penalizing panhandlers AND those who enable them by giving them money. Make it a $500 fine for giving money to panhandlers and send panhandlers to whatever sort of rehab they need or 3 months in jail, in which they attend some basic rehab classes and get situated with employment.

The problem with homelessness is part of a bigger problem, and homelessness tends to destroy areas where it is prevalent due to the crime and other property damage homeless people cause.

Either all that I suggested or let them build their tent cities way out of town, and quarantine them in it.

@moonman @awl You have to get rid of black people and homeless people. Getting rid of the homeless is easy, just find jobs for them and give them incentive to stop doing drugs and/or drinking. This means cutting them off any sort of welfare they receive that keeps them in their comfort zone. The black people part is harder, and there is no realistic way of solving that problem.

@awl I am old enough to remember when the main street in my town was active with people walking around. I remember when it changed. I dislike the "things are the same you just changed how you perceive them" mindset. My Hometown had a very active downtown area and now, like you said, it's desolate. And the city council wants to know how to fix it.

@awl That works until you get people like Manson or Bundy.

@awl I have always ascribed to the Categorical Imperative.  But most people are more fond of making excuses than morals.

@awl @shpuld Yes but only when sitting on invisible chairs, it maintains the balance.

@awl they have helpers that observe the motions on the imaginary keyboard and type it out on a real one

@awl surely erasing history will make it easier in the future to remember what it was all about(

@awl True. There were entire fake villages for visiters.

China does the same. They show off their awesome new military equipment and now people are genuinely convinced China is a superpower, something all actual Chinese people laugh at

@awl It's ironic that Communist propaganda is always more effective with people who don't live in Communist countries.
