Give em a one way bus ticket to Oakland with a voucher for a bottle of wine.

Can not help them, they are mentally ill and addicts.

In many cases they are on the street by choice

Some can be helped. I know people that have been homeless, and turned around their lives by AA, religion, and other means. They are not all losers, but addiction is a problem, as is mental illness. Both can often be addressed successfully.

And some 16% of them are vets.

Most homeless people need help in the mental department, first and foremost. Because you cant help someone that doesn't want to help themselves.

So what's the conservative, small-government plan to get them off drugs and integrated into society?

Public housing? It apparently works because they are still building them.

Get rid of illegal aliens and jobs will open up for the homeless.
