The trees planted on city sidewalks should be replaced with fruit trees, so
the homeless have something to eat in the summer and fall.

So true, and much more than the homeless... Why even a rich business man could reach up get a free snack between meetings. I believe that a culture that values the real like something good to eat, growing everywhere, will not value fake ideals which lead to homelessness and endless business meetings.
I worked with an engineering company and the senior planning designer told us that it's as simple as the city not wanting to clean up the excess dropped fruit or car owners complaining about the dropped flowers on their newly washed car... The abundance we desire is stymied by the poverty that our previous choices have "locked" us in to.
