> and homelessness of developed nations

That's false by a large margin. The US rate of homelessness has been massively reduced over the past 20-30 years and is comparable to Austria.

The US homelessness rate is far below Sweden, France, Britain, Australia, Canada. It's also below the Netherlands.

The housing first program by the US worked exceptionally well.

People travel from all around the world to obtain US healthcare. Say what you will about affordability (I would contend that the main problem is that we don't have a free market for healthcare, we have an unholy crony capitalist hybrid system), but the quality of the healthcare itself is unparalleled anywhere in the world.

If you're at serious risk of death you want to be in a US hospital. I hate the trend of conflating "access to affordable healthcare" with the actual healthcare itself.

Agreed. Those are two more circumstances that it doesn't work well for.

It does seem to do a decent job of encouraging and rewarding entrepreneurism.
