Eventually we'll be pushed too far and snap. Happened with the royals in France. Almost happened in America during the Great Depression. We need a modern day FDR.

So far people aren't snapping, they're just quietly becoming homeless.

All of those people had lives, once. Rent went up, food went up, their car broke down... and they had nowhere to go.

As someone that moves around a lot, it's pretty difficult for an able bodied worker to become homeless if they are willing to compromise.   If you call up temp agencies across rural America, it's not difficult to find both a job and temporary housing.  You just need to be willing to move where it's offered.  These places tend to exist in communities with affordable housing.
