Everyone that is homeless is not a druggie, lazy crap of a person! The way the economy is and the way the housing market is especially in this area, you can't but have homeless people. There are many people that have lost jobs and have families to take care of and have simply hit hard times. The city wanting to provide affordable housing and homeless shelters is comendable and should be applauded. The prices here in Wilmington are ridiculous for NO REASON whatsoever. When the beaches become comparable to Florida's or California's beaches then the prices will make sense. Having a place for people to live and stay until they get back on their feet is better than having them in your so called precious streets or your backyard. The city is giving help to the 80% of homeless people that need it. Think folks...think! Don't ignore the problem, it will not go away...instead fight the issue head on.
