What do you think about housing for chronic alcoholics?

You save money, "the drunken hotel" http://www.desc.org/1811.html As expected, residents of Seattle – tweaked to soak rent – roared. However, just get the street IPC has proved to be a prudent use of funds public. The recently published study from the University of Washington found that a period of 12 months before going to Eastlake 1811, registered residents in 2,312 days county jail.

What is the price of someone's house for a day or two? Annualized talking about $ 35,000 for two nights would cost about $ 200 – Paid by you and me. It is best to address a social problem and not criminalize the status of these people. Better to spend tax revenue effective for a good cause with a possible solution to final pour taxpayer money into a black hole that was never fixed in the current criminal justice system. Good question.
