Let's do the math:
Assume ~600K homeless individuals as of fall 2021. $10K each would be $6 billion. Add another $500M for logistics.
So basically, around $6.5B would put $10,000 in the hands of every homeless person in America.
Imagine!

CONTEXT:
I post this challenge to make the point of how odious billionaire hoarding is.
My policy position is that there should be no billionaires.
We should institute a #WealthTax of 100% above $10 million net worth for individuals, $20 million for couples.
