seems the city or state wont let this water be touched but it's a known spring under the hills of San Francisco.. mainly below Mission street. The Spaniards learned of it by the local Miwak tribe. they paved over that shit for some reason. Army came in and built a fucking Armory. Big ass castle looking thing. they have tours.. but inside the Armory Half of it is used for College film classes and the other half is used by a porn industry.. you know the machine that looks like a mounting horse for gymnist that has a dildo coming out of it .. the fucking machine" or something. thats where they film that nasty shit.
Anyways, again.. it has magical properties, but some believe illuminate pedo groups have brought kidnapped kids down into this lair that makes it way all over the mission and part of it into chinatown. Everyone knows of the sex slaves of Chinatown a century ago. plus opiate dens. Fucking corrupt mother fuckers out here. clearly not all of the wealthy or possibly not the majority but much of Old Stayed money is known to have ties. -

Like if someone asked you how pizzas are cooked, would you tell them that pizzas are barbecued? No, you would say they are baked, because although people do BBQ pizzas, it would be way more accurate to say that pizzas are baked, because they traditionally have been baked and that's just how most people do it.
And since you seem to be incapable of finding it on your own, let me just copy here the sentence in your OP that is analogous to my "A causes B" example:
Homelessness is an inevitable product of technological advancement under the capitalist mode of production. -

You don't know that because you do have to explain this because in ~20 years of speaking the language this is the first I've heard of this.Like if someone asked you how pizzas are cooked, would you tell them that pizzas are barbecued? No, you would say they are baked, because although people do BBQ pizzas, it would be way more accurate to say that pizzas are baked, because they traditionally have been baked and that's just how most people do it.
You'll notice I wasn't answering the question "what causes homelessness?", I said something causes homelessness. But who even gives a shit? This is a stupid semantic argument. Either argue against the proposition that capitalism in technologically advancing societies is a* cause homelessness or shut up because trying to tell me what I meant is a waste of both of our times.
*there you go you illiterate faggot, just to be clear -
2017-05-23 at 8:13 AM UTCA lack of a benevolent leftist dictator controlling/guiding the imbecilic and uneducated masses for the greater good, which would of course include a program to ensure housing for all, is the ultimate cause of homelessness. There is but no other solution.

I had a shitty day at work and was working a job where I was making money hand over fist. I was a waitress.
Had to go to the city and got stuck in bumper to bumper rush hour traffic. This old guy with a bushy beard was standing on the corner and had a sign that read "I ain't gonna lie- it's for beer" we'll with the shitty day I'd had, and having close to 300$ in cash in my pocket just from that days tips, I gave him 20$and my father who was with me threw in another 20$. That fucking Sign had me rolling in laughter and I appreciated knowing that I wasn't being lied to.
That was the happiest homeless alcoholic Vietnam vet I'd ever seen. Glad I could have helped make his shitty life a little better momentarily. Gotta remember just because someone uses the money for drugs or alcohol doesn't mean doesn't mean they don't need something to Stifle the pain- think a lot of homeless can't afford a doctor and do have some form of chronic pain or mental illness... Alcohol is readily available and cheap... Can you blame them for wanting to stop the pain? -

2017-05-24 at 4:45 AM UTCI was basically homeless when I was traveling. I never really slept in the city, most of the time I would go outside of town and stealth camp somewhere in the woods.
I would hate to have to tell somebody to leave if they weren’t actually hurting anyone. I would never do a job where I had to tell people what to do or had any authority over them. -

I lived in the back of a pickup with a shitty alloy shell inside a Garage to cut down on the wind. shitloads of blankets and comforters. like 8. you would think in the bay area that would be enough. It's not. it's a different fucking cold. wet and to the bone. Pneumonia 3 times over a 2 and a half year period. basicly 3 winters. -

IDk, I don't live in SF and have rarely visited due to being a hiki/shut-in. Too much work to go there just to do that.
Oh, you know what would be wizard? If someone hung up the jihadi ISIS picture of Bill Krozby on that sign.
