Finland is capitalist and kind of solved homelessness, with there being around only 1.3k homeless people in the entire country (population: 5.6m, which means the rate of homelessness is around 0.02%).
I don't think that communism or any ideology is an answer to homelessness, it's pretty much the job for the government and what kind of systems/reforms they implement.
Finland hasn't really solved anything, as social democracies just push the problems elsewhere
Exactly, their wealth comes from the exploitation of the global south through financial systems. Imperialism.
