The cost of living in a civilized society is accepting a social safety net. If you are not willing to accept that all people deserve a safe place to sleep and to have thier basic needs met then you simply do not belive in civilization. A society that does not address the basic needs of those in most need ensures that the society will be destroyed by the costs (both in dollars and the moral cost) of not providing those basic services.
