What if we put a 2% tax on all income over $10 million per year and end homelessness forever
I'd be all for that. How would you make sure that's where the money went because now you're relying on the government to allocate it instead of individuals.

Almost no one has an income of $10M per year. And before you say 'billionaires', they aren't getting an income, they are getting stock options and borrowing against those; good luck taxing that, because it's debt, not income.
Let’s stop saying capital gains aren’t income.
