Do you know it would cost like 5% of the military budget to house all people in the US for free?

Not just homeless people, the entire population

Homelessness is less of an economic issue and more of a mental health and substance abuse issue. I volunteer for vet group that finds housing and it’s almost never used. Most of the homeless WANT to live that way because these places require you to be sober.

it is stage JEW

Homelessness is 99% a housing cost issue in capitalism

You are also ignoring all the homeless people you can't obviously see, like people living in cars sometimes with full-time jobs

Even the worst drug addicts of the opium era in China weren't homeless

Random niggers in Africa aren't homeless because it's legal for them to just build a house, even if it's a mud-brick/stick house

If housing costed like $200/month there would be virtually no homeless

Trump said that he would round up all the hobos and put them in camps. I'm still waiting for the orange retard to do it. All those shitty homeless encampments need to be raided and all the people need to be sent to a concentration camp where they are forcibly put off drugs and into labor programs. He promised to clean up these streets.

Trump said he would sort them so the drug addicts can get clean or go to prison, and the crazy ones go to a mental asylum and the ones who can be helped will go to labor camps to get jobs. No more homeless drug addicts shitting on the streets.

What do you do with the homeless people who are sober, not mentally ill, and have full-time jobs, or disabled and get disability checks?

You MIGHT have to do a communism with them?

I assumed Trump would do public work programs to develop infrastructure. So if you have homeless people who don't meet any of the conditions of drugs or criminality or insanity, just down on their luck normal people... they could benefit from going to a location where the government provides housing and a job developing an important or useful piece of infrastructure. Maybe even providing job training to get them up to speed. You could make those people productive using tax money and it would be a good investment.

I'm thinking along the lines of the old hoover dam project.
