The garbage government seems to be not exclusive to Finland though. Concerning nevertheless.

There is no good government. You either have direct democracy or bad government.

Unfortunate none the less. Finland is great overall, even with the current government.

And regarding homelessness in Finland: here it takes actual effort to be homeless, as in living in the streets. I knew one person several summers ago who lived in a hammock because of a complicated scheme involving violence and money. One female friend broke up with her BF and lived with her friends until she got an apartment from another city, so she didn't have to live on the streets.
