No it would just push people to move farther from the city center

If you can afford 1000/month when prices go up you move. You don't suddenly become homeless with a salary/career where you were able to live in SF before

There are a lot of people with absolutely no disposable income. Just having to move is a huge financial stress to them. Aside from the actual cost of moving, you might need to spend more time commuting which adds more cost. A ton of people are very vulnerable financially. Why do you think there are so many homeless people? They’re just lazy? I’m curious where you live? This stuff is really obvious

I'm curious how much you've interacts with the homeless? Any soup kitchens or charity events? There's maybe a 1 out of 50 chance you come across some one who's well put together, education, has a job, but is just a few bucks short each months

those aren't the people waiting in line at the shelter

They don’t start like that. It takes time to pile up enough problems on a human for them to become addict or mentally ill

What you think rich people don't suffer from mental illness?

Not every problem can be blamed on someone else, especially if the issue is your own brain

Of course they can. Ok you’re just trolling at this point. Good luck
