Well, logistically it is better that someone who works in the system be familiar with said system, making formerly homeless people the perfect pool for employees. However by not paying them enough to live on, you ensure they'll never be out of said system.

Us poor people are a commodity now, we are not considered human by society at large, we are just a token to trade.
