If they can't sell you profitable medication they don't give a **** is kind of the bottom line, in Alberta, Canada, where I'm from for example they have basically abolished institutionalizing except in the most extreme cases, as a result our homeless population has been growing, but after Covid it outright exploded, Covid would simply circulate throughout the shelters without end.
Now it's getting to the point where people don't want to ride on public transportation because that's where all these people congregate, you'll be on the train and some guy will light up a cigarette or smoke crack and all the old and young people just stare at me as if I'm supposed to do something, the institutions have failed and they look to the public individual to deal with these things on a case by case basis, so you either get stabbed or emasculated.
Its ridiculous being a man out here, I'm grappling with my own stuff as it is, who needs this on top.
