Exactly. Those who have the wherewithal to seek help can find it in not necessarily ample, but at least adequate supply from private, public, or semi-private institutions. The rest are just diseased, though my argument would be that the mentally unfit lack the right to refuse treatment even if they do not pose any sort of threat to themselves or others, because they are by their nature legally unfit to make these decisions.

Which homeless "problem" are you trying to solve?

If it is the temporary homeless who are often working and just find themselves "down on their luck" the problem can mostly be solved by providing them with clean and safe shelter until they can find more permanent housing; and there has been success with offering one way bus tickets for these people to somewhere they have family that can support them.

For the long term homeless who tend to have mental/emotional problems that are often made dramatically worse by drugs the problem is not easy to address. These people often refuse help, make choices that prevent you from helping them, or pose a risk to the people trying to help them (or other people they're helping). In many cases, unless you take away their rights there is little/nothing you can do to help these people.

you live in chicago? 

..and chicago doesn't have a homeless problem.  travel down south and you will realize what a real homeless problem looks like.

''Apparently my modest proposal to illegal immigration in American got locked. So, the next issue to address is homelessness in America.''

It got locked because it was one of the worst ideas ever.

This 'solution' doesn't require any collabaration from anyone, so why don't you start letting homeless druggies into your house for a shower and a hot meal?

I have modest proposal to increase the quality of the average VGChartz thread: stop making threads, Richard.

harsh but true

There must be a way to capitalize off of these vagrants.
Some kind of factory, or tv show, or self sustaining commune...man sometimes our laws suck. Why can't we pay people in alcohol?

Have them pull rickshaws

Homeless people are more used to sitting on the floor getting drunk, not being productive.

but then people they will get the land for free

they can work the same way and contribute and buy some land somewhere and make tents
