Evicted in San Francisco
We don't have a strong enough social welfare net (or enough resources there-in) to care for folks that need care; but, we're not comfortable letting them starve on the streets either.The result?  Essentially innocent people, like the property owner, get "stuck" with "it's your problem now" where various agencies give contradictory mandates, backed with fines.  How was property owner supposed to respond when told he must get rid of the illegal dwelling, but also told he can't evict the tenant?I mostly sympathize with the property owner here.  As a tenant, especially a tenant in an illegal or undocumented dwelling, you have to expect that a day of reckoning will come.  Even property owners can be "evicted" (eminent domain), much less a property renter.
