Invisible ways the city attacks the unhoused community without catch media backlash
- Taking away access to dumpsters, trash cans, any means of disposing of garbage (biggest example is in front of grocery stores and corner markets)
- Refusing to sell propane to unhoused folks or banning the sell entirely toareas that are more frequented by unhoused folks
- Putting up strip malls of food carts in attempts to cheaply genterfy an area. This way the city only has to slap down concrete and utility access. This pushes back the cost of having that space occupied onto the small business and also pushes them into chasing off the poor because they view it as being harmful to their income source.
Tactics like these helps deepen the divide between classes. The small business owner feel they much fight to create anti homeless laws. The minimum wage employee is tasked with the stress of maintaining the shops appeared by handling any messes that arise and crises that may occur. This creates even more animosity. This class divide creates the perfect scape goat for all the nimbys to take all of their ugliness onto the most vulnerable in our community. So instead of advocating for more resources, people make decisions that are fueled by agitation and misplaced hatred.
