    As someone who just read over these comments: Your reading comprehension sucks.

    Your own source says 1/3 of homeless have problems with alcohol/drugs. So 2/3 don’t.

    Of those 1/3 with problems 2/3 have lifetime histories of drug or alcohol use disorders.

        You still don’t get it? Your argument was most of them are druggies. But your own source says 2/3 of them have no drug problem at all.

          No, my argument was that drug use lead them to being homeless. A lot of homeless people are in rehab programs, and it helps them a lot. The source i listed is one of those programs. You seem like the one with reading comprehension issuses.

            Translations:

            “If someone uses drugs, they deserve to be homeless.”

            “It’s impossible that people would pick up a drug habit to cope with their homelessness problem.”

            “Anyone else who becomes homeless is just dumb or lazy. It’s their fault they don’t have my privilege and I’ll ignore any amount of evidence to not rethink my shitty, self-entitled world view.”
