One short letter to the editor plus a single photograph summarize the sad scope of current homelessness solutions everywhere.
The photo, which is in the article below, is the “after” photo. The “before” photo above is already familiar to most these days: a tent encampment. It happens to be Denver in 2021. It could have been Yakima, or just about anywhere.
As the author of the letter points out, the only victors in Yakima’s war against apparently alien beings are the lawn sprinklers, at last able to go about their robotic activities in the service of a supposedly better class of humankind.
Have a quick read and a peek at Yakima’s lose-lose homelessness victory in the YAKIMA HERALD: Letter: We can do better for unhoused residents
