Because drug addicts need a source of income (by stealing from law abiding citizens and tourists). In this way the SF mayor can keep his social welfare experiment costs lower (the city budget) except for the cost of a few road signs. Hence, the car break-ins will continue. According to Scrippy -> 85 in one night.
There is definitely city action on car break ins. Increased patrols, more plainclothes police, even seeding trap cars to try to catch thieves. The problem is, you can't have a officer on every street corner to watch for break ins. These guys aren't just some random homeless guy coming up and smashing your window. They are organized.

Most of the criminals are not from San Francisco - they come from the surrounding suburban cities and areas. They drive around in cars (with no plates) to scope out targets - usually in touristy areas. They can smash, grab and run within seconds with a driver, a look out and the person making the grab.
