I really hate that term. It implies that they are under-served or lack the resources to be homed.

San Francisco's budget to address the problem is $106,500 per homeless individual, or enough to literally just buy them everything they need and send them to a trade school.

Just because the homeless-industrial complex has resources doesn’t mean the needy homeless do. The first job of non-profit work is to keep the thieves away, and municipal homeless programs often fail this first job miserably. Indeed they’re often shady operations covering graft, rent-seeking, and political favors cough, Seattle, cough

You used the term “homeless” after saying you hate it?
