Hungry - Homeless - American

[diamondfury31]

"Fighting hunger" is impossible and pointless unless you get to the root of the problem which is finding a way that allows the person your feeding to feed themself. Catch a man a fish he can eat for a day teach a man to fish he can eat for a lifetime.

Sad is that the USA cares more about the wealthy in every aspect from small issues to the miltary to its foreign policy. The people of America and the world have becoms slaves of the wealthy for only one crime being born poor. How sad the world spends more on defense than on humanity. Shame on us all for not doing more to help our brothers and sisters.

God, please help the homeless, the poor and those living rough times on the threshold of darkness. Send your servants to feed and to comfort those being without the most neccessary things.

@1970mjim if you are asking God to help then please go be His servant and help them yourself.

Long Hot Summer Baby. Burn baby burn. Beer cans in the slums at 3:16, 3:38 Dont beers cost about 50 or 75c each?

What a pile of bs. They pay military people peanuts and do not give a damn if they end up homeless. I agree 9 year olds cannot work. America needs work for thier parents. Greed is not the way.

[BonerPirate]

Greed isn't the reason their parents aren't working. Last time I checked major corporations aren't exactly thrilled out the recession right now either or lay offs.

"God Helps Them that Helps Themselves"

This is true but how can a homeless CHILD help themselves? The average AGE of a homeless AMERICAN is NINE years old. What if it was YOU who needed the help and didn't know how or where to go?

[BonerPirate]

This is a misleading statistic though. A: in this case it would be more accurate to take the median age, but i've yet to see anything that proves that the average homeless age is 9. I'd imagine a great amount of these people come from transient families living homless with their parents in various shelters. Also, kids are expensive and rampant unprotected sex among impoverished people only serve to make them more susceptable to being homeless.

[BonerPirate]

Also i'm confused, I read somewhere where it was somewhere around 80% of homeless are adults which would make it almost impossible for the 9 year old thing to be true unless all children were infants and all homeless adults were 18. In any case, I feel sorry for the homeless who are only that because of situations out of control. I don't feel bad for the drunk asshole guy down the street from me who is drunk all the time and only says "Better than nothin" when you toss him a buck or a sandwich.

@BonerPirate There is a deeper more troubling problem there and this is why they cling to addiction, because they lack in love and are in despair. Feed the cause of the addiction which is a big huge gaping vacuum of a hole...these people are aching for someone to really listen reach out and love them and the world is too busy or lazy to care.

GOD HELPS THEM THAT HELP THEMSELVES!
