Punks in the Haight

I certainly agree with this comment:

"The Haight punks may not be able to afford rent, but that is because they choose to do no work and mooch off those who do. Further, they are not looking for housing. They have no intention of settling down in San Francisco or anywhere else. The affordability or unaffordability of rent is thus irrelevant to their condition."

That comment from Heather Mac Donald, of the New York-based City Journal, a quarterly magazine about urban affairs, writing about San Francisco's sit/lie debate. Unfortunately, given the far left leanings of this city I doubt that much can be done.
