The consequence is, we have a huge population of homeless people that moved here because the weather is mild and the people are generous, making being homeless here far less terrible than, say, New York or Chicago or Cleveland or Phoenix or even LA.&lt;p&gt;It&amp;#x27;s really easy to accuse a large and varying group of people of living purely for avarice, especially when you clearly have no idea what you&amp;#x27;re talking about.  What are you doing about the homeless problem?  Making snide comments on HN that scapegoat other people.&lt;p&gt;References:&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://articles.washingtonpost.com/2013-08-20/national/41427596_1_northern-california-rawson-neal-psychiatric-hospital-patients&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;http:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;articles.washingtonpost.com&amp;#x2F;2013-08-20&amp;#x2F;national&amp;#x2F;41427...&lt;/a&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=5221311&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;http:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;www.npr.org&amp;#x2F;templates&amp;#x2F;story&amp;#x2F;story.php?storyId=5221311&lt;/a&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.sfgate.com/bayarea/matier-ross/article/Homeless-problem-lingers-as-S-F-spends-millions-3173290.php&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;http:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;www.sfgate.com&amp;#x2F;bayarea&amp;#x2F;matier-ross&amp;#x2F;article&amp;#x2F;Homeless-p...&lt;/a&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.theatlantic.com/business/archive/2013/08/the-astonishing-decline-of-homelessness-in-america/279050/&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;http:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;www.theatlantic.com&amp;#x2F;business&amp;#x2F;archive&amp;#x2F;2013&amp;#x2F;08&amp;#x2F;the-asto...&lt;/a&gt;</text><parent_chain><item><author>bowlofpetunias</author><text>For me, personally, this cancels out anything good about Silicon Valley.

There are seven million people in the Bay Area. A tiny fraction are homeless. Try lifting up an adult human being sometime. It&amp;#x27;s not easy. These people are frequently mentally ill, addicted to drugs, or otherwise incapable of taking care of themselves. Example:&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.businessinsider.com/former-business-owner-homeless-in-silicon-valley-2013-8?op=1#ixzz2dZIyTTZj&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;http:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;www.businessinsider.com&amp;#x2F;former-business-owner-homeles...&lt;/a&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;pre&gt;&lt;code&gt;  She ended up homeless when she turned to California&amp;#x27;s 
  shelter network and hated it. ... Five years ago she moved 
  into The Jungle and says she has no regrets.
  &lt;/code&gt;&lt;/pre&gt;
If you think differently, I recommend you go down there and try to lift them out of poverty. Once it&amp;#x27;s your responsibility, you&amp;#x27;ll quickly find there is a reason they are living like that.</text><parent_chain><item><author>bowlofpetunias</author><text>For me, personally, this cancels out anything good about Silicon Valley.
