As the homeless situation in San Francisco continues to worsen, journalists headed to the scene to investigate the problems and solutions. Investigative journalist Michael Shellenberger exposed the underlying causes behind the homeless crisis.
On Friday, Shellenberger, who is known for his investigative work on the Twitter Files, tweeted out a video of him interviewing numerous homeless people from San Francisco. The people detailed their experience living on the streets.
Listen to the homeless. They’ll tell you they are on the streets for the drugs, and that assault is commonplace. San Francisco attracts addicts from across the US because it lets them buy and use drugs openly. Video by @lwoodhouse pic.twitter.com/Rx7iJWPoL2

Contrary to public belief, Shellenberger stated that homeless individuals aren’t people who can’t afford rent. He said that they are out on the streets because of their serious drug addictions.
When pressed on their living situation, Shellenberger discovered that most of the homeless people he met were homeless by choice.
