Homeless shelters
Assuming many have mental problems but being able to create some type of incentive that for those that are motivated can work for the shelter. The shelter should be able to provide some type of work for those that want it. It should complete with industries that countries that oppose America subsidize, like have left America like textiles, cheap plastic toys, recycling, solar panel manufacturing, cleaning streets/sidewalks/highways, farm hands, landscaping.
Legally compensation will need to be creative but it should also be subsidized by government because every person that can return to society takes less money and pays more taxes. Maybe a prob of the money can be held back in a forced savings account for when the homeless person graduates.
