No. of Paragraph 12

Yesterday, California Gov. Gavin Newsom issued an executive order for the removal of homeless encampments throughout the Golden State. The move came in the aftermath of a recent Supreme Court ruling allowing cities to not only ban people from sleeping on the street, but to fine and arrest them. And it caught the attention of a particularly wealthy constituent. 

In response to a post on X from Newsom, which read: “No more excuses. We’ve provided the time. We’ve provided the funds. Now it’s time for locals to do their job,” Silicon Valley billionaire and venture capitalist, Vinod Khosla, sort of agreed. 

“Agree but if, and only if, we provide them an alternative location to sleep,” Khosla wrote. “We are rich enough as a society to afford this level of caring if the left ‘do-gooders’ don’t create expensive ‘minimal standards’ that make this unaffordable. It should be better than a street tent, with a place to go to the bathroom and shower, transport to jobs so the homeless can get a job. If so, cost of homelessness will decline. Mental health homeless folks should be treated separately/differently. Meritocracy is great as long as we take care of those who are temporarily or permanently disadvantaged in some way and cannot take care of themselves. The minimum level of care should be based on affordability by society and hence GDP growth.”

It’s not shocking to hear from the cofounder of Sun Microsystems, because Khosla can be outspoken. Earlier this week, he and Elon Musk sparred on social media over presidential candidates; Khosla happens to be a Democratic donor, while Musk has been very vocal in his support of a Donald Trump, J.D. Vance ticket. But, you might remember, Khosla is in the midst of a housing kerfuffle himself.
