Hmmmm. Sounds like something UBI could solve.
Except there are a lot of people who believe that the homelessness and suffering is natural, correct, and deserved.
Maybe in America, but in most other places homelessness isn't demonised nearly as much (also America is probably the only place that will make you homeless if you get seriously ill).
I think somewhere in the Nordic states, they've trialled UBI in an area and I think with success.
Edit: So the results are a mixed bag, as you would expect, but generally people were much happier with UBI.
