Just like typical progressive Nazi Democrats, the leftists in Seattle want to dump their ever increasing homeless population on someone else. Seattle leftists want to bus out all the homeless people accumulating in the city (mainly because it’s too damn expensive to live there) and bus them to another state. Who’s going to take these people? Idaho? Oregon? And believe it or not, the leftists in Seattle who are proposing this policy are using the guise of “family reunification” to justify the busing of homeless to another state.

I guess they got a lot of stupid people living in Seattle and the general King County area. They keep re-electing these socialist Democrats and the homeless population continues to grow. It’s not as many as in San Francisco, New York or Los Angeles, but the numbers are getting up there. Left wing policies bring homelessness.
A Seattle-area council member is pushing a $1 million proposal that would bus homeless people out of the state as part of a “family reunification” plan.
The plan, proposed by King County Councilman Reagan Dunn, would be a one- or two-year pilot program aimed at helping people who have someone in another state willing to take them in but can’t afford the cost of getting there.
Busing programs have been around for decades and have had varying degrees of success. While they can be a cheap and convenient way to connect people, critics warn it could lead to dangerous situations and say there’s no guarantee of permanent housing.
The city of Seattle and community organizers already offer free bus tickets as part of their broader approach to homelessness but Dunn’s proposal, unveiled Tuesday, focuses on 1,000 homeless people who said they wanted to reconnect with family during a homeless count in King County back in January.
In that survey, 9 percent of respondents said “family reunification” was one piece of support they needed to get off the streets and obtain permanent housing. However, other things like rental assistance, clearing up credit history and obtaining IDs ranked much higher.
