    Opening homeless shelters and soup kitchens that tailor to them does nothing to actually solve homelessness.

People who are homless are homeless because they are incapable of holding down a job or keeping a steady life. Drug addicts, mentally ill, and so on. They aren't the sort of people you can fix, you just have to provide for them so that they do not become the things that are causing all the crime and issues that cgod is talking about.

Ultimately, if we wanted to solve homelessness than I can offer you a single, final, very easy, solution to your problem. If you aren't willing to move, if you aren't willing to solve the problem and help people, than there isn't much else you can do.
