You can't help those who don't want to help themselves

[Believe_N_Me]

Your generosity will only enable their addictions and bad habits.

For example, government-funded programs have only prolonged poverty. After all, if a person can get their basic needs by staying at the poverty line, then where is the incentive for them to strive for self-sufficiency? Even if you implemented policies that limited their use of these services, that doesn't stop the influx of new recipients waiting to use said services. You are creating a conveyor belt effect, and worse, a revolving door.

In the matter of homelessness and drug use, a person would have to want to get clean. You can't force anyone into rehabilitation . However, in some cases a person can be forced into what is called involuntary rehab. You can read about it here: https://americanaddictioncenters.org/rehab-guide/involuntary-rehab-forced

"...there are a few ways to go about it. One way is through the drug courts, which divert nonviolent offenders with a Substance Use Disorder (SUD) from going to prison and admits them instead into supervised treatment programs, where the goal isn’t punishment but treatment...to be eligible for drug court, however, an individual must have been arrested, pleaded guilty to the charged offense, and agree to the court-ordered treatment program."

Lucky are the few who have caring family members that stage an intervention. But what about those with no family? Most homeless people do not have any caring person to step in. It would require city leaders to make an executive decision to arrest those living on the streets with a drug addiction. This would be a daunting feat for law enforcement to go out and arrest the homeless population in their cities. But more importantly, would it be ethical to do so? And where does it stop?

If city officials can decide which group to arrest at any time, who is to say that next time they won't base the criteria on race, sex, religion, political affiliation, etc.?

The social ills we see today that are rapidly growing are the result of moral decline in the culture. And who else controls the cultural narrative other than progressive (woke) libs whose made a religion out of glorifying dysfunction?
