Surprise! Here's Where Your Taxes to Help 'Homeless People' Actually Go

Victoria Taft

November 16, 2025 All over the country, big-hearted Americans have generously given their

tax dollars to ostensibly "help the homeless." California, swimming in

tax dollars, lost track of more than $24 billion of homeless spending.

Spending on homelessness is being plundered. A new study confirms that

at least some of those tax dollars are being hijacked and delivered to

extremist political groups. he usual faith-based groups — the Salvation Army, St. Vincent de

Paul, Rescue Missions — struggle to help individuals who fall on hard

times get off the streets. These programs have long been the most

successful: they require sobriety and bring God into the lives of people

in desperate need. But in 2013, federal funding launched a drive to

"End Homelessness in Ten Years," and with it came grant money and

unchecked spending.

Suddenly, every city had a program. And suddenly anti-capitalist extremists got their hands on that money.

Portland,

Seattle, San Francisco, San Diego, and L.A. all bought into the plan,

and the money flowed. In 2016, many states, including California, went

with "housing first" models — throwing out sobriety requirements to get

better — and it's now worse than ever.

These

activists have created a kind of fraudulent nobility that comes with

cooping up addicts in apartments and calling it "housing justice."

Worse, decriminalizing drugs and setting up "safe" places to shoot up drugs gave birth to homeless tourism.

California, Oregon, Hawaii, and New York have attracted 40% (and probably more) of all "homeless" addicts.
