Capitalism is the root cause. America has no interest in dealing with it.

In the case of Californian homelessness, it is probably half and half. Half it was also Reagan and the neo-liberal ideology of the time of getting rid of social services (Specifically the mental institutions that a lot of people depend on to keep off the streets). There are a lot of people who simply can't afford a place to live for them and their families (And who aren't as "talented" as homelessness to be able to keep themselves clean enough to even have a job to begin with), and I think those specifically are the victims of capitalism, because capitalism requires homelessness as the "ultimate punishment" for those who fall out of the system in order to keep people working low paying, dead-end jobs as slave labor.
