My mom brings it up a lot that she believes some people like the homeless lifestyle and don't have the desire to be a "productive member of society".
I guess I can udnerstand that, but if that's the case, is it okay for them to ask for money or go to soup kitchens?
I feel like that's ripping off the people who didn't chose that lifestyle.
Most homeless people are homeless because they suffer from mental illness and cannot competently cope in a currency-driven world.
More research and funding needs to be alloted towards relieving MI or simple jobs reserved aside for those inflicted with MI.
I know the majority tend to say "Oh he's nuts, let him die alone next to a dumpster." but it's pretty much similar to taking the same attitude towards a personal whom is intellectually disabled.
Their humans in situations that you wouldn't even want to be in your nightmares and as humans there should be some humane way of either fixing their problem or establishing a system that they can use to help themselves with.
I mean, do you really need that shopping cart pushing job? Why not try for something more clever that pays better and leave that slot open for people whom are less keen.
