I *paid* for my home. Why are *they* getting one for free.

Honestly, I'm reminded of the scene in the Underground Railroad where a bounty hunter asks a former slave if they aren't angry about all those freed slaves up North when she had to *work* for *her* freedom.

Yeah, I paid a bunch for this place, but if you tell me homeless people are getting housed then I'm not going to begrudge them that. Getting a roof over your head and a postal address solves a lot of problems and enables solving of others.

Same reason we can't manage to raise minimum wage... "BUT I work hard! Why should a janitor make as much as me!?"

They deserve to live and thrive and be happy, but that's just too much to handle for some people, who will never thrive or be happy.
