I'm "progressive" and agree that SF needs an overhaul. Here for it.
Don't be turned off by the title, the argument is strong on what we're doing wrong in SF and other cities, and Michael and his team detail a great plan to help get our addicts and other unhoused off the streets and into housing, helping those with mental illness and/or substance use disorders, while also helping our communities recover from the blight that is now in SF's Tenderloin - (and in LA's Skid Row, and in Boston and elsewhere, I have learned.) This is SUCH an important read to learn why and how our systems in SF are broken - and to learn about how communities around the globe have eradicated their open air drug scenes like in SF's Tenderloin, with compassion and care - and RESULTS. Looking forward to having this plan unfurl over the next months and seeing important, needed change be made. Thank you Michael Shellenberger for your heartbreaking research and heart-felt inspiration for change around these important topics in our own back yard.
