I think we've pretty conclusively proven this to be false.
There are several reasons the streets are filled with unhoused people. Some are so mentally ill that they can't function in society. Some have lost control of their drug addictions. Some are undocumented and don't know how to secure the things they need. And sure, some percentage are there due to trade and economic policies.
There's not one tidy reason to explain the problem, and I suspect that if you start talking to the unhoused, the reason you've latched on to is not even going to be the predominant one.
