I dont expect many if the druggies to take the cureThey will need somewhere to live once they are clean.
There amore than 500k homeless people in the US.
There is also a housing shortage in the US.
Not sure those work well together.

I can see the lib NGOs working to assist with that problem
They will also need jobs
Probably not work that you would do but jobs that at least them started back into society
Wow? The overturns two decades of ruling for the homeless
Forced rehab is not going to resolve the problem. You want to incarcerate, rather than rehabilitate.Giving vagrants time to dry out is the best way of rehabing them
Its far better than letting them remain on the street where they can get high as much as they want
It was their decision to become drug addictsThis ruling does not help with any of those, it just removes them even further from society by making them criminals

Reports indicate that the vast majority are on drugsYou seem to assume all homeless people are druggies....this is not the case

The state will end up being forced to pay for it. The red states that refuse to pay for it..will have a humanitarian disaster on their hands...in 1st world country no less.Who is going to pay for that?
One source I found claims 75% alcohol and 25% drugs
According to SAMHSA, 38% of homeless people abused alcohol while 26% abused other drugs

Yes, you beat me to it by milli secondsso, 55%, not 75%.
Thanks
Put them to work to pay for their stay. There are a lot of streets to be swept, freeway roadsides to de-trash and parks to clean up.Who is going to pay for that?
They've always been criminals. Druggies and homeless commit crimes to survive.Indeed all those things are needed.
This ruling does not help with any of those, it just removes them even further from society by making them criminals
Though, I think it is the correct ruling, I just do not think it helps the problem.
I do not always assume there is a solution to every problem.
People are homeless for a variety of reasons, there is no one solution that will fix the problem.
