Mon, 28 Jul 2014 07:35:20 +0000 http://www.dailycamera.com/letters/ci_26213421/alex-hearn-gratuities-should-go-servers#IDComment858753857 http://www.dailycamera.com/news/boulder/ci_26202545/boulder-coroner-homeless-man-found-dead-alley-overdosed#IDComment857700475 Step One: Boulder starts having the police enforce the laws already on the books. Step Two: (and this is probably the more important one) People stop giving money to people on the street. I am all for the the city's funding of the Homeless Shelter and all other services to homeless people, whether they be those who have lost their jobs or those, like Max (the "homeless philosopher"), who *choose* to be homeless and sponge off the rest of us. Publicly funded services provide anyone who needs it shelter in the colder months and food throughout the year. That's what they need to survive and I'm happy to contribute to that both through my tax dollars and private donations. Donations to the agencies... through whose work people who want to can hope to better their lives to get back on their feet is a noble and good cause. Many of Boulder's homeless population are like that: you don't see them, but they're fighting to survive and seeking to improve their lives. Those people you *do* see, the face of the homeless, are those you see along the creek, at the library and on street corners asking for your money to keep them in their lifestyle. Boulder has always been a Mecca for the homeless who only want to sponge off society. Those of you who have been here know that this was a problem *way* before Boulder even had a homeless shelter or services targeted to the homeless population. The Shelter has not brought more homeless people, nor have the various services that the city provides. What keeps the transients here -- those who hang out near and at the library, those in central park and along the creek -- are the donations they receive on the street corners and intersections. I'll repeat that: What keeps the transients here -- those who hang out near and at the library, those in central park and along the creek -- are the donations they receive on the street corners and intersections. Don't give panhandlers money. It's really that simple.

People are reading it and finding it interesting enough to comment on. Hmmm. That's probably why, I would guess.

Got it. Thanks.

You just think that will happen in the future. Noted.

Please reference a study that shows that revenues went down when either Boulder County sales or property taxes went up.
