"We've tried cutting funding to the department building homes, we've kicked everyone off the emergency housing list, we've ensured efforts to pay women as much as men have been stopped, and we have made an incredible number of people jobless both directly and indirectly; that's basically everything we can think of to cure homelessness and we're all out of ideas"
(paraphrased)
“Surely there must be more we can do! Have you tried creating incentive structures that ensure the cost of housing is unaffordable?”
Its much needed. My preference is to do it properly and house then or find an area that has services available. But jf thats not an option then I would still support getting rid of them.
Its pretty much universally supported by aucklanders to get them out of the city. They are so aggressive and crash out daily.
Yes of course they want them to be moved elsewhere, but those people elsewhere aren't going to be happy with them there either. We can't solve problems by making them someone else's problem. We need to solve to root cause of the problem.
Yes of course root problem fix is best but if its not an option I'll take anything at this point. Putting them elsewhere affects less people than having them in the busiest cbd in the country. Its so damaging having them in the cbd.
