It absolutely is a failing of the individual. It can still be a "disease" at the same time.
Oh please, most of them are. Drug addiction is the leading cause of prolonged homelessness, followed by mental illness.
And often times their addiction caused them to be homeless. I'm not sure what value there is in trying to prove exceptions when the general trends are clear as day.
I used to work at a homeless shelter when I was doing some community service work and I can tell you first hand most of them don't want help. They don't care. They just want drugs. They get offered treatment opportunities all the time but they refuse because they can't get loaded.
