A lot of money goes to politicians, their supporters, and bourgeois — while only a small percentage goes to fixing homelessness.
This is essentially looting the public by corrupt actors under the false guise of moral action.
Seattle in particular has turned to abusive gaslighting:
Per capita, Seattle citizens pay nearly the most in the country — only for politicians to prey on that, by pocketing the money and heaping abuse (“yOu’Re nOt cOmPaSsIoNaTe!”) on the public to exploit their good nature.
I’m at the point I hope a Republican administration drops the RICO hammer on the racketeering — these people need jail for a decade for their treachery.

If you’re spending most of the money on politicians, their friends, and bourgeois — for the purpose of virtue signaling rather than fixing the problem — you’re a second problem.
Government looting the public.
