and if the homeless problem was "solved," they'd just look for more behavior to criminalize. we'll never get better as a society while for-profit prisons are a thing.
The sad thing is that, infrastructure wise, it would be trivial to convert prisons to high volume homeless shelters. Take down the barbed wire and remove the locks on the doors, give them the same subsidies.
