The poor don't get free housing. Homeless shelters do exists, largely subsidized by private charities, and there are way too few of them, and they are incredibly dangerous. For those who get Section 8 vouchers (after waiting for years), nobody will take them.
There is a good chunk of free food out there, but not in food deserts, which of course disproportionately affect poor minorities.
If medical care is free to the poor, why does everyone have to go to the emergency room, and why are firefighters acting like EMTs with big red trucks? Why are there so many physically and mentally ill people on the streets?
School lunches continue to be defunded (even this year, during a pandemic, during massive inflation) and not available enough in poor minority communities.
