>> We have an economy that can't provide enough jobs
That's so wrong. There are more job openings right now than there are unemployed workers. Explain it to me, how is that "an economy that can't provide enough jobs"?
Think about it this way. If there were enough good paying jobs around for everyone then recessions would be impossible because people always have the option to switch to a good job.
That implies that everyone wants to work, AND that the people who are homeless at the margin want to live in a house.
Case in point: I live in a "nice" area up on a hill in my city and there are multiple homeless who sleep/have camps in the hillside directly adjacent. One of them drives a bmw and has been there at least 6 months. A couple sits in their car all day in the same spot doing who knows what.
There are many people who simply do not want to take part in society, while still living within it.
