This is a way for Puna to pay back for all the benefits received from the state and county. Make Puna the mecca for the bum tourists. The ones wandering around in town aren't really like the homeless over in Oahu, not that many families. It's understandable in Oahu, families living on the edge, housing costs go skyrocketing, they are out, not on the edge. It is expected to be a growing problem, especially since Micronesia is starting to experience sea rising and the federal government is offering Hawaii as a place to move. There is very little planning going on, just get people over, then expect the various social programs to take care of everything. It will be like actual, real world problems versus imagined problems. Real world problems get ignored until something breaks or worse, then the mad scramble begins. Air fares are going to start going way down, going to make it a lot easier for freeloading bums to drift over. The first few days, the drugs and wine flow, then the money runs out. Then it will become the search for free money.
"Aloha also means goodbye. Aloha!"
"Aloha also means goodbye. Aloha!"
