The solution to homelessness is to identify a new corner of the frontier where you can turn young people into soldiers, hand them guns, and tell them to clear out the native inhabitants to claim the free real estate.

The only stops working when you run out of native populations to exploit. Then you run into a bunch of armed young men marching the opposite direction, looking to take your real estate. And that's when you start screaming to high heaven about how we need strong borders and more-lethal militaries and brave freedom fighters willing to give their lives to protect your sacred property.
