Oh, has NYC solved the homeless issue through those commercial associations?

The free market certainly does some good, but it's never gonna solve the problem in full. If it could, it already would have.

You asserted "the free market has no incentive to solve the problem." I responded with a counterfactual. The broader assertion, that the free market will solve the problem, was not made until now. I agree with you on that.

Fair, I should've said that the market is only weakly incentivized.
