They have to solve it themselves. No one can force them to be a responsible human being

Affordable housing
Investments in public transportation
Loan forgiveness
Expanded Medicaid
Monthly stimulus checks
Just kidding, stop issuing narcan is the correct answer

Enforce the laws, they are trespassing, on drugs, remaining after forbidden, most probably have warrants, send the cops in arrest em, load em on a bus and incarcerate them, they will figure out a better way all by themselves

It depends on the circumstances which led one to be homeless. The family of low-wage earners who are unable to pay their bills and live out of their car have completely different problems than the dude drunkenly pissing in public transportation.
The true bums? Let vigilantes take care of the chronically criminal, and reinstitute some kind of mental care facilities for the rest.
The economically destitute? That one is harder. No one benefits from being gifted services and assets for the simple act of being; but I also don't think we should have a world in which someone willing to work hard is unable to secure the most basic of necessities.

Relocate them here.
Sure, a few bears will get gastritis but all in all it's a win-win for everyone.

Restart the Civil Corps. Give people an opportunity to work in exchange for food and shelter. If they don’t want to do it, make them. Get them off the street.

An expansive system of addiction and mental health treatment including an army of social workers to work in the field advocating for individuals.
A short term financial assistance program to get people back on their feet.
Life Camps to teach the very basics of productive human activity.
The ones that won’t recover should be shipped to tribal African lands to live or die with the other savages

So lock them all up? If they are not working now you think they will magically start working?
Seriously, many of them are just mental.
Someone was telling me about this old lady I know. She had two adopted kids, I don't know them, but the son is homeless. She is in her 80s, lives alone. She wanted him to move in with her and evidently he would call at random every blue moon and she begged him to come home. That he didn't have to live that way anymore. He refuses. Its his decision to be homeless. Evidently he was always a little off, but it makes me wonder. How many homeless people are out there by choice?
And I honestly there that number would probably be higher than we realize. I guess its its own community? But they have to limit them. I don't know how, I would think if there was a way they would have done it already, but I think they need to at least be aggressive when them fricks are begging.

That’s a lot of tax dollars to spend. Cities like NO can barley keep the jails open. Don’t think it would work there.

Some version of the Civilian Conservation Corps from the 30s. Cut off all the aid that supports the drug and alcohol usage. Make the CCC the only source of food and clothing and cover for those who haven't worked for a decade.

Bingo. I'd say 99.9% of homeless people have substance abuse issues and that's most likely what led them to become homeless

One of the contributing factors is that through various court decisions over the past 30-40 years or so, it has become very difficult to detain crazy people and to hold them for long periods. Thus many institutions that held crazy folks have closed or shrunk. Crazy folks (the ones that their families will not fool with) were forced into halfway type houses, but often wouldn't stay (they are crazy after all), and many have ended up on the streets.

Tim Dillon said it’s between two choices:
1. We build housing
2. We boil them all in a giant pot.
