A much as I hate redditards, this is true. The addict/criminal homeless and the bankrupt, but doing their best are two different groups.
I have tremendous sympathy for the later group, but the former have been coddled by do-gooders for wwwwaaaayyyy too long and need to be placed in treatment whether they agree with the process or not.

Activists are often aware of the distinction but lump the two groups together so they can generate statistics that mislead about the nature of people who are chronically homeless.
But the public doesn't mind people who are in the larger struggling group; they want to fix problems associated with passed-out people on the sidewalk.
