    Kind of like some said in their comment of his idea "like any homeless will use that".
    Most already have pallet houses or other types of shelters they live in.

    But most have told me homeless ppl make more than me anyways.

    12-year-old Max Wallack stole the show at Design Squad’s Trash to Treasure contest with his “Home Dome.” The contest asked kids to repurpose trash into practical inventions. I wonder if the Home Dome gets an honorable LEED Certification? The dome provides shelter for the homeless and is made from plastic, wire, packing peanuts, and flargstin....
