What is the solution to homelessness in the US?

I believe the solution to homelessness in america is to take some of the taxes that we already pay and make sure that it goes to people that cant help themselves.  Get some people that have to do swap as a requirement and make them work kitchens for their service learning hours.  I think its not impossible to help i just think that people are so self consumed that they cant put themselves aside for one damn day to help someone who isn't them.  If there was anything i could do to help them i would.  The solution to homelessness in the u.s. is the u.s. we can only help ourselves.
