Homelessness is a rotation that begins when your boss at work files for bankruptcy. Then you can’t find a job that pays enough money to afford rent. From there, you are pulled off the sidewalk, questioned, prodded, made to visit 30 different organizations that have no help for you, ticketed, fined, jailed, sent back to be evaluated for drug abuse and mental illness, jailed again, evaluated by more groups, given no help, and then you exit to the sidewalk, back again. This continues the rest of your life, or until you die, and San Diego homeless, mercifully, do not live very long. When not having downtown toilets nor showers finally causes you to not have the will to live, then you no longer care about survival, and you allow yourself to die. Sick? Why go to a doctor? Rainy? Why take shelter? Traffic? Why get out of its way? There are 30 who die for each one who finds housing, depending upon how you define “homeless” and “housing”. Not your fault, except that it is everybody’s fault.
