Priorities

 How many homeless in the U.S. as of 6/1/26?

An estimated 745,652 people are experiencing homelessness in the U.S. on a given night. This figure is from the Department of Housing and Urban Development's (HUD) annual Point-in-Time count.\\

What has been the cost of the iran war so far? (As of 6/1/26)

Long-Term Projections: Economists warn that the long-term tab—which must eventually factor in veterans' medical care, replacing depleted munitions, and macroeconomic drags on GDP and inflation—could ultimately range from $630 billion to $1 trillion.

Divide $1 trillion by 745,652 (number of homeless on any given night)

(US$ 1 trillion) / 745 652 = 1.34110818 million US$

Clearly, making millionaires of every homeless American would solve the housing problem, but it could probably be resolved at a lesser cost per person with some left over.  Going forward, it would be a good idea to not become mired in pointless wars.
