There's always going to be people who fall through the cracks in your safety net because they for some (usually mental health related) reason just can't integrate into the framework of society. You can offer help, but even without conditions attached there's going to be people who will refuse it.

I don't think the issue in America is that we've tried the best we can but some have slipped through the cracks. More along the lines of we've tried nothing and we are all out of ideas.
