Homes are for the weak; only the homeless are truly strong. These modern nomads are the only people prepared for a true black swan.

Me, in a conversation with Rajiv.  He believes that this is the sort of thinking that has lead to San Francisco smelling like a urinal.  He might be correct.

I don’t think so.  It’s the moderate weather coupled with an abundance of social services, public and private.  I’m not saying this is a bad thing, but it does have unintended consequences, such as other cities buying bus tickets for homeless people and sending them to San Francisco (and LA).

Agreed.  The only true solution here is to cut social services and charity.  The mild weather won’t go away with a social black swan … and if it does, well the homeless are still more prepared, as they’re more accustomed to dealing with the swings of weather without the benefits of air conditionning etc.
