Homelessness & Poverty Inc need to break up

Shocking homeless numbers:

167,000 Canadian orgs spend $34B/year on homelessness.
An estimated 235,000 Canadians impacted by homelessness/year.
$34B ÷ 235,000 = $144,680/person/year
But wait, it gets worse.
Every night in Canada, aprox 35,000 Canadians are #homeless.
$34B ÷ 35,000 = $971,428/person/year
"There must be a better, more cost-effective way to achieve results through co-ordinating this confusing jumble of services."
Ya think?
