The case is considered the most significant to come before the high court in decades on homelessness, which is reaching record levels in the United States.
Okay then, why is the solution of making sleeping outdoors illegal bring debated by the highest court in the land? Why is the supreme court of the US even entertaining such an unethical proposition? Doing so is just the US abdicating responsibility for it's people, and intensifying and welcoming inequality. Why not debate starting housing programmes for people instead, so that people do not have to sleep outside in the first place?
Given these people have nowhere to go why not set aside some public land that allows long term encampments or maybe if it’s a concern about the safety of these encampments, the government could acquire an empty office building and retrofit it with modest accommodations for these peoples.
Or you could just admit it’s not about helping these people it’s about making them go away.
Those are both reasonable solutions and I'm not arguing against them. I just pointed out that this fight isn't about banning homeless people from sleeping outside. It's more nuanced than that.
