Homeless crisis demands an AUTHORITARIAN solution

The  endless homeless crisis in the United States clearly demands an AUTHORITARIAN solution ( NOT fascist , NOT communist ) . The chronic homeless are a danger to themselves and a threat to public health.   Consider the American military to the rescue here. Thousands of sickly homeless can be  transported to quickly assembled military style barracks with clean beds , laundry rooms,  nourishing cafeteria  food , and  open door social service offices.  They can learn ABC survival skills and recover something vital called SELF-RESPECT .
                       ACLU is warped here in thinking that HOMELESSNESS should be a right .  HAVING A  DECENT HOME should be a human right .
                      HUMAN RIGHTS should not include the RIGHT to be homeless , the RIGHT to beg .
                         Here is where AUTHORITARIANISM is needed  : you can't regiment the homeless without also putting the real estate gentry , the landlord class, on notice that their private property rights are not absolute .    Rigid RENT CONTROL and prosecution of negligent slum lords is also necessary . 
                      Neither LIBERALISM nor FREE ENTERPRISE can begin to solve the homeless problem in the United States or in any other capitalist country
