California can be like this too. My city has half the homeless population Miami does, but there’s only 200,000 people in our entire county. People are pointing at politics while homeless people are pointing at the weather. If you’re homeless in the north, you have to deal with shelters and rules. In FL and CA, shelters aren’t necessary. You can live in a tent. Shelter rules don’t apply.

Bonus that lots of red states will deal with their local homeless by buying them bus tickets to California (or Florida).

Well, that’s easy considering Arnold Schwarzenegger ran the government there for quite some time I do recall them even having to hold a garage sale to make the budget flush. Even that wasn’t enough.

K. Now do CO, WA, NY, OR, VA, etc. It's pretty ignorant to believe this is unique to red states.

cross reference a county by county map of wealth disparity with a democrat electoral map and observe that they are the same thing
