If we take this at face value, and assume for the moment that you are talking about the US.
For homeless people there is no requirement by the US government to house them. There are some grants to provide shelter, but no statutory tool that says "you must fix this"
So right there, the "government" has got out of the way. One could observe that if it was the government's fault, then the US should have a lower homelessness problem.
If we look at the international standings, the USA has a higher rate of "unsheltered" per 100k than say france or the UK.
So if its not the government, perhaps is that US citizens are just stingy fuckers who don't want to help?
