Michael Shellenberger has lived in the San Francisco Bay Area for thirty years. During that time, he advocated for the decriminalization of drugs, affordable housing, and alternatives to jail and prison. But as homeless encampments spread, and overdose deaths skyrocketed, Shellenberger decided to take a closer look at the problem.
What he discovered shocked him. The problems had grown worse, not despite, but because of progressive policies. San Francisco and other West Coast cities — Los Angeles, Seattle, Portland — had gone beyond merely tolerating homelessness, drug dealing, and crime to actively enabling them.
Watch Shellenberger's recent appearance on "TUCKER CARLSON TONIGHT"
San Fransicko reveals that the underlying problem isn’t a lack of housing or money for social programs. The real problem is an ideology that designates some people, by identity or experience, as victims entitled to destructive behaviors. The result is an undermining of the values that make cities, and civilization itself, possible.
On February 3, Shellenberger was kicked out of San Francisco’s controversial Tenderloin Linkage Center after staff claimed that he scaled a fence to get in. Click here to read Shellenberger's latest piece, "Slow-Motion Suicide in San Francisco," in which he describes in detail what he witnessed at the Linkage Center site.
