There's a difference between being homeless where you can't afford rent anymore and you still have a job and the homeless from the mainland who get wasted on drugs and alcohol and move here to Waikiki because they hear about free food in the park and nice sunny warm weather beaches. You hear the same story from all of those Waikiki homeless. "I lost my job, left my wife and kids due to alcohol problems and came to Hawaii because I didn't want to freeze where I came from." "Plus the free food in the park." How many dozens of homeless in Waikiki I talked to already. Same old story same ol song and dannnnnnce my friend. I'm not saying don't help them. I know how it is because I almost ended up homeless it didn't everything I could to get a job and a home.
