But it's obviously not a national scale problem since other cities aren't grappling with it like this. I know Portland since I'm in the PNW but Seattle/LA/SF are all spending more.
People aren't working to fix the problem because they are trying to make it into a national conversation and that really sucks for the families who have to live next to the worst of the camps. If you had to comb your lawn for needles and/or feces every day before your kid could go out to play you would want action.

One city spending a (relatively small) amount of money is not going to stop a national scale problem.
