It's pretty misguided to say that feeding strays is the problem. People are the problem - those cats aren't a naturally occurring species in the wild here. They came from somewhere.

Feeding feral cats doesn't spontaneously create more cats in your neighborhood. More cats in your neighborhood are created by the existing cats being left un-spayed/neutered. The solution is pretty obvious, and that solution isn't "stop feeding them" or "have them all killed". The solution is trap them, spay them, and set them free.
