gollark: People *allegedly* care a bit about homelessness, abstractly. If you ask "homelessness, is it good" people are obviously going to say no. If you ask "so would you actually give up any money/resources to help homeless people", a few might say no. But people's revealed preferences, i.e. what they actually do, suggest that they do not care.
gollark: I mean, I support... market systems, broadly speaking... and also the existence and, well, human/whatever rights of people regardless of race/gender/sexuality/whatever.
