Uhh as opposed to some private business that should just, what, deal with it? Who else should be responsible for solving homelessness if not the public?

The public should be responsible.
Prison is the worst way for the public to solve this problem.
It’s more expensive (incarceration is extremely expensive), eliminates the possibility of the individuals being productive, introduces them to people who will push them towards more crime (not just the apparent “crime” of not being able to afford a shelter), etc.
