Nearly everyone on this thread is saying how this isn't a practical solution to the problem, and nearly everyone is missing the point: it's not meant to be practical in any way. It's an art installation. It's meant to be big, ugly, provocative, a bit trolling (see the name, parasite) and generate a discussion on the issue of homelessness.

Cities like LA, SF pay more than $2000 every month for each tent space and spend almost a billion dollar a year on emergency responses.
Don’t think $5 tent is gonna change anything.
