Un-regulated immigration of "refugees" isn't going so well in Germany at the moment, Bill. Well on the way to becoming the new Sweden by the look of things. It's often said that migrants enrich the cultures they're brought into, but that doesn't seem to be happening. As an enthusiastic proponent of Globalism, perhaps you can explain what's going wrong here:

"When constituencies are small their elected representatives must concern themselves with the local interests of their constituents. When political representatives are distant and faceless, on the other hand, and represent vast numbers of unknown constituents, they represent not their constituents, but special interest groups whose lobbyists are numerous and ever present. Typically in Europe a technocrat is an ex-politician or a civil servant. He is unelected, virtually impossible to dislodge during his term of employment and has been granted extensive executive and even legislative power without popular mandate and without being directly answerable to the people whose interests he falsely purports to represent."

Since you clearly have no understanding of how rentals operate I thought it pointless to educate you. It's always pointless to eduate you, so I don't bother.
At least this time you have grasped the nature of the problem on the tenant s' side.

I think we could more reasonably conclude that every regular contributor on this ng understands that any system of govt when poorly implemented sucks. To claim otherwise is anything from naive to childish - your usual hunting ground.
As if NT has any idea of how to do that. Of course he sees "discussions" as places where he can show off his inflated self image (including his delusi ons of competence), and has missed the part about exchange of information, probably because he hasn't got any to exchange.

Homeless people don't make good tenants. That's a problem that has to be ac tively managed. Trust NT not to grasp this.

So where would you go to get informed? Cursitor Doom recommended getting in formed on tenancy law, which tells you a lot about what can go wrong, but n othing about how you stop it going wrong. It was a waste of bandwidth but at least a gesture in the right direction.

And where have I claimed otherwise? And capitalism isn't a system of govern ment - it's an economic system, which isn't quite the same thing.
They did it in Utah first. They did the math and figured out it was cheaper than putting them in jail. In fact having been in I met someone who was ho meless and when winter started getting too cold went out and did something specifically to get put in jail. He needed no guards at $30,000 per year pl us benefits. I knew a broad who had some medical condition and got herself thrown in the hooskaw when she needed treatment.
They gave them apartments. Without an address you cannot get the food card, or the free phone or even free medical except to stabilise you and throw y ou out. You cannot get a job without a phone and it is also getting to the point where you absolutely need internet access.
Maybe it is a handout, but it does quite resemble a hand up.

correct, they're mostly disastrous tenants. The level of destruction caused makes them unhousable from a financial pov. Some of course are fine, but s o many aren't.
Nice soundbite, but you don't have any real solutions. I did look into it y ears ago & came up with a way, but did not invest in it in the end.

He's got nothing better to do all day than troll this newsgroup - and all at public expense, since he's totally unemployable and probably has been for decades..

It's certainly not a public expense - I'm retired and have some pension inc ome (most of it from the UK) but get as much again out of investments.
I held my last full-time job until May 2003, which is less than two decades ago. I'm not so obviously unemployable that I don't get job interviews fro m time to time - the most recent one was from Australia's nuclear reactor w here they've got a 1990-built neutron diffraction set up which they are thi nking about modernising. A 77-year-old might not be an obvious choice, but the job is going to have to be done in fits and starts and the fact that I don't need a continuous income makes me an attractive candidate.
Cursitor Dooms skills at personality assessment are what you'd expect from a gullible twit.
A lot of things go over NT head - he doesn't seem to hear the whoosh himself.
I already spelled out that landlords have to inspect such properties frequently and kick out destructive tenants at the first sign of damage, and fix the damage immediately.
I even threw in a link to the underlying philosophy.

Trust NT to miss all of this.
His idea of getting education seems to involve concentrating on sources that support his silly ideas and ignoring anything that might correct them.
Couldn't persuade any other potential investors that it might work.
That seems the only thing that you are aware you don't grasp. In reality - an area where you flounder - you seem to be able to ignore most of the universe.
Sadly, you are the prat here, and you advertise the fact more or less non-stop.

The "east coast model" of moving homeless into shelters, and appointments with social service agencies, and transitional assistance to section 8 housing and so on is relatively effective:
Providence RI is dirt poor by San Francisco standards but you almost never see homeless sleeping on the street. There are some habitual panhandlers by the highway off-ramps but they're usually like the same
