.Not, everyone who is homeless has mental issues or drug issues. The homelessness problem is mainly because the rich companies are buying up smaller companies through forced merges or other reasons. Then, the now bigger company consolidates the two companies and fires thousands of people to save money and to keep the stock holders happy. That creates a shortage of jobs. Then, the big companies implement machines to do the work of the workers they have left. The job shortage increases in the thousands again. Then, people without a job cannot pay their mortgage or rent and end up living in a car or on the street. I know a war veteran that has never been on drugs and does not have mental issues. He served a few tours in the Iraq war. Now, he is living on the street in Washington D.C. not far from the White House. Next, the government deals with homelessness the wrong way. They throw mothers with children in hotels that cost the government a ton of money. With that same money, the government could build housing such as projects (but not just a handful of projects, a lot of project buildings), and to live in those buildings the gov should put a requisite that you have to work in a factory ALSO created or run by the government. That way, homeless people suddenly have a job and a place to stay and are not costing the gov millions of dollars while being on things like welfare and food stamps. Those that can not work could then be given SSI disability payments. The gov would save billions a year and the homelessness would shrink massively while creating rent revenue as well as product revenue from the factories. But, none of that happens because the gov is controlled by the Landlords association and by the retail businesses like Walmart and Amazon. Who suffers in the end from this control on the gov ?? The poor because the rich are the ones firing, consolidating, getting tax breaks, raising rents, and making sure the minimum wages don't go up which forces people that cannot pay the higher rent into homelessness. Do we Americans complain about this rich problem. Nope. We are too distracted with the clown politicians so that we won't see who the real problem is.
Adam’s right about not everyone is homeless doing the vagrant lifestyle, a friend of mine told me a story about a reporter doing a story here in the state that I live in a major city and the reporter lived as a vagrant for a time he made close to $200 in a day from holding a sign (begging) he saw some other guys doing it and followed one of them he found out this guy had a BMW and was making $600 a day doing this. Yeah hard times.

Those damn scooters. No scooters = no homelessness. Problem solved
If the city made camp sites in certain areas, you can legally move them. You literally just need an empyrean dirt lot
