18. It doesn't matter what got a person to homelessness.
Neither our personal judgement nor the official propaganda to tie homelessness in with "failure to be a good and proper citizen" are real and accurate.

The fact is: People are homeless, they need help, and our society must have a hand in caring for ALL of its citizens.

More resources must be allocated to help get people out of this tragedy.

The corporationms that reap off of the poor must be controlled.

What are we worth if we are not a compassionate society?

What is a "Democracy" that doesn't care for ALL of it's citizens?
