I think that's the bigger picture though... Any area that figures out homelessness doesn't just have to solve it for their community, but for every community on a 10 hour bus ride. The city I live in has good policies regarding helping homelessness. The problem, is that every city around us, including Indianapolis, ships their homeless here. It is a classic tragedy of the commons. And any solution that doesn't account for the game theory applications is doomed to fail for those very reason.
