100% incorrect. All problems do indeed have solutions.
Just not solutions a majority accept.
As with most things, it all comes down to how you define the problem. The way you define the problem dictates the solution space. I include majority acceptance as part of the problem. I also include solutions that are legal, constitutional, and financially feasible as part of the problem. I suppose it is possible to define the problem without such considerations - but that then generates solutions that we would never undertake in the real world - such as The Final Solution.
My impression is that she became homeless while she was working. That’s another good point though. Once the person is homeless getting out of it becomes next to impossible. Try to apply for a job without a permanent address and see how many people are interested in hiring you.
Yes, exactly. And you can’t register to vote, either.

So your real meaning is "not all problems have perfect solutions." About an 8.6 on the Duh-O-Meter.
Yeah, you can have a job and still not be able find an affordable place to live. If you were a student or just starting out, one could always find a back house to rent. One room with a bath and kitchenette would run 400 and up. Now, if you are lucky, you might find an apartment for 1,100. Most are 1,500 around here. It's like the landlords suddenly became greedy or something. Everyone I know is working, but plenty have a problem with affordable renting. Heck, I'm looking for a new house and those prices are unreal too. Houses that were 300,000 five years ago are now 800,000. Makes no sense.
With the low unemployment rate being what it is, you have to wonder what's wrong with the people who are homeless if they can't find a job.
Most of the new jobs are low wage, part-time, etc. Also once you fall on hard times, poor credit will disqualify many from getting hired (as well as renting) , and lack of an address will disqualify just about everyone.
And like others have said, working full time is no guarantee you can afford rent. Like I said I had a patient recently who worked full time in Taj casino in AC, who slept in the casino bus area for a time after becoming homeless while working.
I have 0 pity 0 compassion for the homeless. Some people see a beggar and want to give them a few dollars I see an empty set of hands and want to put a broom or shovel in them.
Maybe we do need homeless worker camps to build a wall or other random projects. Setup a few fema trailers, portapoties, and put these people to work for minimum wages.

It's only loosely connected because of the vast cultural and economic differences, but India is now being rocked by revelations that their real unemployment rate has been suppressed by government reports showing a much rosier picture. Imagine that.
