Where are the homeless supposed to go?

Cities have been cracking down on homeless people so they can’t have encampments or stay on sidewalks. At the same time usually the shelters are full. So those who are unable to get into a shelter, where are they supposed to go?

Communism sounds so awesome, too bad the god of the universe wants humans to live in a capitalist society, so communism is bad.

Communism was so great that they had to put a big wall up to keep people from leaving.

Great if you don’t want any choice, of course.

Strawman and also just one type of communism. Now you can insert your view about how it never works because it was tried all of about 10 times (the USSR + easter bloc counts as one attempt btw), whereas capitalism had about 500 years of development through various stages of genocide and colonialism and despotism, now it reins supreme but only about 50 out of the 190 odd countries are prospering at all out of it. But socialism is given 80 years max and we write it off as the worst idea ever. Makes perfect sense.
