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?

A lot, if you know how to think critically.

More likely to eat similar food, similar activities, sports, issues.

Finding jobs, communities, even the workers they’re assigned.

Homelessness is caused by: mental illness, addictions, poverty and lack of family supports/extra private sources of support.  In what world does cultural or even individual similarity ger rid of these underlying triggers/causes of homelessness?
