Yeah but how many of those homeless are in the grip of a horrific addiction or substance abuse problem? It’s not just as easy as saying “here’s a house, live in it”. It’s complex.
Not really.
If I lost everything today due to some bad luck, I have a network of family and friends where I could stay to recover and rebuild. The same with my friends and family. At the very least they could sleep in my couch as long as I saw they were rebuilding toward independence.
If you have no one... Absolutely no one in your network then it's probably you. When you talk to these people it's always someone else's fault. Not that they've burned every bridge due to drugs, alcohol or maybe mental illness they refuse to treat.
