If everyone voted for a wealth tax we could have small apartments and counseling for the homeless. No more homeless in our streets. :) the surplus of cash could also improve our infrastructure. More public transportation and bullet trains 😉

US only has 650k homeless people. With its budget it doesn't even need to tax the wealthy.

We already spend more dealing with homelessness issues than we would need to spend to house them.

As a country, we need to understand our puritanical roots and eject them from our collective conscious.

Why stop there? We should provide free housing for everyone. I would gladly stop working so hard and accept a free house.
