We'll probably see people get demailed then too. They'll probably go for inmates first.

Ask the homeless about their mail address.

Not having a physical address is a huge problem.

Exactly, that's a non-starter for a whole pile of essential services. Which makes homelessness very easy to fall into but extremely hard to work your way back out of.

Post office should offer free services for receiving and holding mail for up to 30 days. Not necessarily a P.O. box, as there's limited space for that, but something they can get for you during business hours. Would significantly help the homeless and van-lifers.

Then why don't we see people getting demailed now?
