Lack of employment when there is no lack of jobs is indicative of a lack of desire to work.

That’s rationalizing rhetoric. What will putting those people into $800,000 townhouses (if indeed they agree to go) do for them?

The government (taxpayers) pays for them, but that doesn’t mean they own them. The developer will undoubtedly own the deed.

my comment had nothing to do with the crazy 800K town home price.

no. the government agency will hold title. And the property will be tax free.

Usually the state owns the property for things like this.

Damn how do the Chinese build whole ass hospitals in like a week but it costs 800k to fall behind schedule on some units for homeless people
4 walls, a roof, a door, a window, plumbing and electrical conduits outside the walls. Bolt a fire extinguisher to the wall. Come on, this is just embarrassing.
I have watched the Chinese construct buildings. It is quite interesting to see guys maneuver full wheelbarrows full of concrete, three stories up on bamboo scaffolding held together by old, frayed rope.
I wouldn’t live in one.
We watched men haul concrete they had mixed on the sidewalk and put into buckets up bamboo scaffolding and doing who knows what with it while working on a building next to our hotel. I too would not live or trust the construction of many of those buildings.

Okay. Let me rephrase it for you.

I don’t see where you are getting that, but if it is true, it truly is a recipe for disaster for the LA taxpayers.

It will give them a stable platform to build a life from.
I don’t know much about this actual program, but I am assuming there are drug tests and employment requirements associated with being a tenant.

For many of them, it will be a nice quiet (and temporary) spot to stab themselves with needles.

All those acrobatics are indicative of a piss poor work environment with a serious lack of safety controls. They probably look all mystical and kung fu’y doing it though, so the fantasizing is to be expected.
The number of deaths caused by workplace accidents in China fell 12.1 percent to 38,000 in 2017 compared to the previous year, state media reported on Tuesday, citing figures from the country's safety watchdog.
