If you start shipping them around, you’re dehumanizing them, treating them like objects instead of people with agency.
Furthermore, what happens when they get there? Low housing costs are a symptom of little to no economic opportunities, so you’re essentially just warehousing them like parts on a shelf.
What do you do with the inconvenient people, the mentally ill and those who cannot easily participate in society? Yeah, you’ve shipped them somewhere where they’re not in your way, but will you also provide for treatment or just wait and hope they solve the problem by dying or getting killed?
People are not things, despite what economists may say. You can’t just ship them around and utter thoughts and prayers at them. I guess you could but you’d be joining a select group of history’s biggest assholes.
