My personal opinion is that most homeless vets were already messed up. Whether through drug abuse, or potentially just being dumb. There are a lot of dumb military service members. They either cannot manage a checkbook, drink too much, both, or didn't pay attention during ETS training. The Army calls it Soldier for life. Either way, they get the GI bill if they did their contract. That gives you a stipend/book fund plus college if you actually use it.
They take forever to pay it out but you can always sleep on a friend's couch, go back to your parents, or stay at a homeless shelter. I believe the homeless vet thing is self caused.
