Yeah that's fair. This is why I chose "most" rather than just saying it is true for those here. Generally speaking social safety nets are what keep these total hours down, people can (usually) claim enough to survive, meaning that they can actually just be unemployed rather than forcing upon themselves absurd hours just to avoid homelessness. These nets aren't always easily accessible if totally honest about circumstances though, and they're not accessible to various migrants or those without documents.
Idk what country you're talking about. I'm Spanish, and the "safety net" during unemployment is going back to living with your parents, which is a form of houselessness (not in the sense that you live on the streets but in the sense that you don't have income to rent or buy a place)
