Ignoring the "free stuff" straw man but it's fascinating how someone can be so cruel to not want society to solve the homelessness problem. If this becomes a "mainstream" opinion, we've truly failed as homo sapiens.

Adding more money to "the homelessness problem" seems unlikely to actually solve the problem. It's (politically) difficult to address the underlying root causes, but easy to show how compassionate we are while subsidizing homelessness, and you get more of what you pay for, so.

You might not be able to solve the crisis with money alone but you need lots of money to solve it is my gut feeling.
