Homeless people sleep too.
Yes they do, until they get arrested for being homeless, because sadly many police and politicians just don't care. ☹️
When a homeless person becomes a prisoner, they sleep in prison.
Yep, on the taxpayer's dime, unless it's in Florida or one of the other states that mandate work in prison to pay off your own bills. Nothing is truly free.
Anyone who has had to sleep rough (or just tried going camping without a tent) knows the relative value of four walls, a mattress, and a properly temperature-controlled room.
When I was about 12, I went camping with the church youth group. First day, it rained pretty hard for a couple hours. I left the tent door open the whole time. Everything was wet the whole trip. Sleeping while surrounded by water and wet things, is very uncomfortable. So, yes, all of these things are extremely important, and EVERY person should have access to all of these things.
