    You’re right, and it sucks, but so do ever-expanding homeless encampments. If you actually visit Portland you’ll be like 😬. It’s one thing to discuss it in theory, but something entirely different to experience it and have to live around it. I’m empathetic towards homeless people and have been homeless myself before. It’s an absolutely awful situation to be in, especially as an adult without a support network. But there’s an endurance limit for a city, and Portland is well beyond that limit.
