Places like CA act like they don’t want to take away their drugs because they care about the homeless and their plight, but the reality is they know it speeds along their death. And a dead homeless person is one less problem
The average lifespan of an adult in the USA is like ~78yrs old. Know what it is for a chronically homeless person? 50
The only negative to this plan is emergency rooms. These cannot turn anyone away. So as the homeless slowly kill themselves from their drug use in front of everyone, they try to save their own lives by going into ER’s. Not only does this prolong their life, something the authorities don’t want, but it also racks up tons of ER expenses
Note: I am not condoning this “solution”, just being a realist and pointing out it is the solution the country has adopted

Obama tried to do something about it but you(plural) got big mad with 73? repeal attempts. Balanced budget my ass.
