The difference is that we have all the tools and resources to not live like caveman nowadays. We could feed everyone if we wanted to, but the government would rather fire another barrage of missiles at impoverished people

People are not living like cavemen nowadays. They want iPhones and pickup trucks and air conditioning.

If you're willing to spend your free time living the way a caveman did, you can probably get by working a lot fewer hours.

Being homeless is essentially criminalized in most countries. So where do you propose we do that?

Iphone $800 Ford F350 $45,000

A year of average US rent $25,000 which you have to keep paying every year and it goes up AT LEAST 8% every year.

The truck will let you pay it off over 5 years so your monthly payments would be like 750. Not nothing for sure but still not even half of rent.
