#5 I have no problem with providing shelter for the homeless: I'd put them in tent cities out in the boondocks surrounded by concertina wire. They would be provided with food, water and port-a-potties. Somehow I suspect Governor Newsom has something more elaborate, not to mention more expensive, in mind.
