text: When the Navy gave Barbers Point to the state, it was a prime opportunity to do something for the homeless.  There were buildings for organizations that help with clothing, food, medical etc.... there were also buildings that could have been used as apartments and homes for families.  Education and training classes could have been set up.
  Now..... a lot of the buildings are in ruins, left to rot.  The state had to have it though, just to see it rot and be of no use.  
  Oahu had an opportunity that could have helped greatly in the homeless issue.  I guess our government couldn't find  a way to line their pockets with helping the homeless, so they did nothing and let the place go to hell.
