We have a successful house for homeless drunks. Sobriety not required, lack of violence is. I've sent a few that way. I'm sure it will go on the chopping block of budget cuts I'm very sad to say.
I'm solidly in the so what camp myself. I care for people with alcohol related diseases among other things, so I'm far from blind to the physical risks or the societal costs. Not every homeless person is able to function on a level enabling them to take a shower and show up on a job interview on any given day. The ones that can, do.
