Hawaii state Representative Tom Brower (D) has been taking a sledgehammer to Hawaii’s homelessness problem. Literally. Wielding a sledgehammer, the lawmaker has destroyed over 30 shopping carts used by homeless people to store and transport their belongings.
Brower claims his actions are a product of his frustration over the existence of homelessness in his district, telling Hawaii News Now, “I got tired of telling people I’m trying to pass laws. I want to do something practical that will really clean up the streets.”
Brower also wakes those he finds sleeping and tell them to sleep somewhere else. “If someone is sleeping at night on the bus stop, I don’t do anything, but if they are sleeping during the day, I’ll walk up and say, ‘Get your ass moving,'” he said.

I think you missed the point; it’s not to help the homeless, but rather the homeowners.
How will it help homeowners? It’s not going to get homeless people off the street or make them less visible.
Yeah, damn those Schizophrenics anyway! Don’t they know those carts are for consumers to use? They need to just suit up and join us in Paradise. (sarc off)
Mr. Browbeater has probably been reading Krugman. By destroying carts, he’s making jobs!
