@Tomaldinho9 Please tell me that at the age of 20 years old, you are only joking & are not actually ignorant enough to think that people are homeless in this world because they didn't work as hard as you in school! Please? Your work in school, whatever you may study, is great. Good for you indeed. But at 20 years old, you are the future. You not only need that education you have, but you need compassion as well......There is another type of education I believe that you may need to work on also.

@cotterfour actually, you are completely wrong in your sweeping generalizations. i was a college graduate and became homeless a year ago due to being unable to afford student loan payments/rent/food/transportat­ion. eventually i pulled out of it, but life is still a struggle. it is totally wrong to judge the homeless as weak and spineless. many of them are, but many of them aren't. they come from all walks of life.

@cotterfour How do you know that these people aren't a part of a job corp? And how do you know for a fact that they beg?

[cotterfour]

@Swallowchllorox : Sure I've made bad decisions but I overcame them by correcting my course of action. And yeh, many are without jobs for awhile...but not for friggin' YEARS. Most bums have chosen and adhered themselves to this pathetic lifestyle and many have had it far worse but are NOT

out on the street begging like vultures...they don't cry, they TRY, and they overcome external adversity. Let these carrion crows do the same.

[cotterfour]

@Swallowchllorox : I do NOT believe that mental illness exists. Bi-polar, depression, ADD, etc. are the afflictions of weak-minded people who excuse themselves by saying these infirmities are a "disease". Physical ailments? Sure they exist: Cancer, MS, etc. You can see them on an X-ray chart or blood test but even those with physical plights don't all trash themselves by laying out in the street like slime.
