I'm trying to understand San Francisco's response to this kind of situation.

Is it one of the following?

(a) The citizens and leaders have a clear plan in place, and they're waiting for it to bear fruit.

(b) The citizens and leaders don't have a plan in place, but they have some other reason to believe the problem will sort itself out.

(c) They're paralyzed, because nobody can identify a plan that seems effective and politically acceptable.

(d) They don't consider the problem so significant that major action is needed.

(e) (something else)

Caveat: I'm sure this account is accurate, but I've also heard counterpoints that only small regions of SF are like this. So as an outsider I don't really have a clear picture about the situation.
