Did you know San Francisco spends $2 million a year on a "Managed Alcohol Program?" It provides free Alcohol to people struggling with chronic alcoholism who are mostly homeless. I stumbled upon the building where they have this program. This is what I saw.🧵

The tweet is complete misinformation
They don't give beer, but shots of vodka
It doesn't cost $2 million a year, but $5 million
Previously, the city reported that just five residents who struggled with alcohol use disorder had cost more than $4 million in ambulance transports over a five-year period, with as many as 2,000 ambulance transports over that time.
In an October presentation, public health staff pointed to one story of a 38-year-old man suffering from addiction and psychotic disorder. He reportedly had more than 36 ER visits over nine months with high blood alcohol content. In the nine months after joining the program, that number fell to just six ER visits.

You're parsing the sentence wrong. Most of the people served are homeless, not everyone served is mostly homeless.

You're the same age as a very very minor public figure (who nonetheless has a wikipedia page) that I really want to bang despite her being roughly a decade older than me
I can't really hint at who she is without giving it away, she's professionally notable for an extremely niche combination of things.
