The problem is that people don't appreciate the total costs of
homelessness because they are spread over so many different budgets.
Hospital emergeny treatment, mental illness, drug use problems,
criminal behaviour, police and justice system and jail costs, social
workers, cleanup costs, and so on......    Added up, it would be
cheaper to pay the rent on hotel rooms for them.
