Part of the story:

Obamacare includes "Essential Health Benefits, which indlucles substance abuse treatment.

Everbody accross the lande is eligible for govt. subsidized healthcare.

A profitable industry springs, up recruiting patients nationwide.

Problem adicts/alcoholics are approached by "salespersons:

--How would you like to get clean-sober?

--In California

--You can be on a plane tomorrow

--trip to the gym every day

--trip to the beach every day

--free healthcare

--free sober living

------------------------------------

Then when they test dirty, they get dropped and "curbed," without return travel to their point of origin.

And they wind up homeless, in our towns


@truth_seeker

Sounds like a plan to me!

Nothing personal,but Ca already has so many of these people now,you probably won't even notice the increase.
Anyone who isn't paranoid in 2021 just isn't thinking clearly!

Or, they can pack them off to another town, in another State.

We have bums congregating in my little town, and the Cops had never seen any of them before.

Cop:  "So, where are you from?"
Bum:  "Las Vegas."
Cop:  "How did you decide to come to Bullhead?"
"Bum:  "The City gave me a bus ticket, marked "Bullhead City, AZ."

So now we have bums sleeping in the Parks, and some hike up the foothills into my neighborhood.  Well, let the Yotes deal with 'em.  They'll probably get shot if they decide to climb my particular hill, with my Castle.

I will NOT comply.

"Fake News" is news that's expected to be believed.  "Satire" is obviously false to anybody who pays attention to real news.
Anything connected to a liberal mindset is fake news then.

Denver pulled the same sh*t on us during the boom here.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Well, what it requires is a keen sense of not what they'd do, but how far the Liberals have actually gone, in word and deed. Satire is just on the far side of the line.

It is tough to keep up with, because almost all of TV/pop culture today would have been seen as too far out for satire, if not banned for obscenity in my youth, and the closer we get to today, the thinner the margin between the plausible and the actual.

Quite a racket, but then, those who really want to quit, do. The rest are likely just playing someone.

These outfits are pretty  much "high-end" Betty Ford-Hazelton.

They ride around in Sprinter Vans, known as "Druggie Buggies."

No insurance, no addictions but tobacco and coffee, and considering what the list could have been, I'm sticking with those two!
Besides, I never count on the weather. Last two times I spent any length of time in the desert, for instance, it rained three weeks the first time, and rained and snowed for ten days the second. :shrug:

I'd agree with that, yes.
