Currently in some cities/states, the government is required by law to provide shelter for people whom are seeking asylum in the USA. NYC has taken in over 100,000 such people and many have lived in nice hotels, receive free food and such.
American citizens... do not have such a privilege... even when they have worked, paid taxes... they can end up in the street, in their car, without much support. The system and support can be spotty.
Should the next government enact such law to ensure people do not
Note: there certainly can be rules and regulations for behavior. We don't baby people whom destroy our public property. But a homeless person under such law, would have access if they are responsible person.
