It sucks that so many people have drug and mental health problems.
It's a difficult problem. I used to be a member of an organization that went to a big city to try to help the homeless/addicted, and saw first hand that 95% of them don't want the kind of help that would improve their situation. They just want immediate things like socks/food/money. You could argue that poor decision making is what got them into their current situation, but what do you do? Force help upon them?

Wow. Sad. The sheer volume of homeless and obviously intoxicated people is striking.

Visually, it reminds me of the neighborhoods I grew up in. Thankfully we didn't have widespread homeless and drug problems - everyone was just poor.
