Its literally a choice if you live on the streets here.

What if you can't find work for whatever reason (e.g. there's high unemployment and not enough jobs for everyone, or the person is somehow considered "unemployable," but not necessarily disabled)? What about single parents with infants/toddlers? Are there a lot of "bullshit jobs" where you live?

We have a social rent system in place for that, it means the government will pay part of the rent. Also if you cant work because you have kids there is a system in place for that too, you receive benefits (which is based on minimum wage).

Basically everyone pays taxes on their wage here to make sure no one has to live on the streets. There is lots of social housing here.
