Abstract: This paper summarily lays out one potential legislative solution to poverty and homelessness in developed countries. This solution would be a government program offering loans to noncreditworthy individuals, repaid through additional, progressive taxation. The program helps solve the fundamental problem of access to credit for noncreditworthy individuals and alleviate structural mismatches between labour supply and labour demand.
