For some reason I can't figure out society has determined that self respect can be legislated.

Self respect must be earned by doing esteemable things.

All this false pride shit is just disgusting to me
The problem with this system is that most of the people who are long-term homeless are suffering from addiction and/or mental health issues. Not to mention many of them also have PTSD from living on the streets.

Any solution that doesn't involve dealing with those core issues likely is not going to be very successful.
