Have you talked to homeless people?

My experience is from São Paulo and Seattle but entertaining this notion that it's a thought-out choice full of intention is wild. Most homeless people just want some shade of stability and would leave that situation any day any time if given resources.

They are not primates with 0 agency but most societies don't really give them a lot of options.
