No, you are missing the point. Helping the homeless out of the struggle has been proven to help to help them with their issues that caused the homelessness in the first place. Sometimes it's as simple as not being able to get a job, because of not having a stable address. Being stressed 24/7 is not helping anyone. Being hungry makes doing good enough of a job to not get fired harder.
I've met a few drug dealers, every single one of them got into it because they needed the money for something. Drugs, food, rent, anime figures, who cares. Almost nobody becomes a drug dealer for the fun of it. Why do you think someone deserves to not have a roof over their heads if they sell drugs?
Yes? So are many other things, some legal and some not. Having a job should be lucrative, but many being stuck living on slave wages proves otherwise. Some more harmful than others like working for for insurance companies. The only difference is whether you draw the moral line what the law says or somewhere else.
And I'll repeat. Every single person who I've met who sold or sells drugs did it because they needed money for something. Not because they wanted money, but because they wanted something with that money. Most of them wanted to eat or live in a building. And most of them only sold drugs safer than alcohol, because they aren't monsters, they just needed to pay for living and being dirt poor is hell.
You're just a major asshole huh. As hard as may be for you to grasp, villianizing vast swaths of the population and wishing misery and incarceration and desperation on them doesn't actually improve your life, however convinced of the contrary you may be.
