I think our issues with homelessness and obesity are pretty similar -- targeting the late state symptoms is not effective. Dealing with the root causes will yield the actions for improvement. But both are creeping issues -- they've been going the wrong way for a long time and at least in our American society, we haven't seen any significant improvements. Our structural society doesn't value or recognize well-being.
