Do you pretend not to see the homeless as you walk by?

Too many families are loosing their jobs and getting evicted from their homes and end up on the streets.

that really angers me the most when i see children, war-vets, and battered women homeless! i am a war vet, tax payer, and an american citizen. while some are out there because of the choices they made, others were there through no fault of there own! (mine was due to domestic violence when my son was just a baby!) i had WORTHLESS FAMILY FOR THE MOST PART! our country takes enough of our taxes to do something about this problem, but just won't!

i rememeber as a child, my mom lost her house, we stayed on the beach for a few months , my mom would wash us up at a gas station restroom, it was hard but it makes u appreciate life more, and have a heart for other ppl

@culturekarma IMHO. That is better off. There is a huge difference between opening your eyes and actually being there. I do not understand why opening your eyes would be enough. And for your information, I've been there, more people have than you would think. I was clearly stating that the homeless in this country survive. If they are unable to its because they are just giving up on life. If they die for any other reason, give them a Darwin award and move on.

@Intellectual88 How would you know? You been there? No instead they die getting their brains bashed in by some spoiled rotten teenagers. Is that better off? You need to open your eyes to what really goes on in this world.

@Intellectual88 so children who are homeless are drug addicts or have lost the will to live? I thought the same thing!!

American way:

Step 1, take away income.

Step 2 take away basic rights.

step 3 take away children.

Watch out.

European way: see iamnotanumbernr1 channel.

Great video! I think we need to make America more aware of the homeless people right here in America rather than to send all our money across sees. And like invisiblepeople.tv has done, put names and faces to the ones we always classify as "homeless," "the impoverished," "the needy." Although I am very concerned about homelessness WORLDWIDE, I think that there are so many here who deserve a chance. We need better resources for people who are honest and just have caught a bad break in life.

I do see them. I also see and realize how better off they are compared to the billion before them. A homeless person in the USA does not die of famine. He or she does not die of dehydration. They do not have to worry about and explosion that wipes out their entire family. If they die from either of these, they are a drug addict or have lost the will to live. IMO Give them jobs, not money or drugs. (Alcohol)
