    Thank you sir....How many top ramen cup o noodles can I get for $20 if I get them in bulk at Costco?

    I would go into 7-11 and dunk those phuckers into the toilet and use their microwave
    Funny, if you are homeless with a Costco card you will be King of the streets!

      You could also use your betpoints to get taco bell giftcards.

They dont really pay per child.
        She can easily get section 8 housing, subsidized housing, or something similar if she receives ssi. But it 100x better to be with family and have their support. Having no support, or burning all bridges with family/friends is why most people are homeless (I'm not counting substance abuse or mental illness). A lot of people would be homeless if their family didn't help them out in certain situations.

          When you think about it, nobody should be homeless that doesn't want to be.

          It takes a male and female to make a baby. We're not just dumped here on this earth naked and alone. So that's 2 people in our "circle". Those 2 that made us have their own parents and siblings, so that's more people in our circle. Our aunts and uncles have children, our cousins, so that's more people in our circle. Our siblings have children, our nieces and nephews, so that's more people in our circle.

          Now look at how many people are in our circle. 3 generations of people. If we fall on hard times, why can't our circle help us out? Why can't we lean on them when we need them. In a lot of cases, that's exactly what happens.

          But in a lot of other cases, we've left our circle. Not just physically, but emotionally and mentally. We've stolen from them. Over and over. Asked them to co-sign a car loan and screwed them. Promised over and over to pay them back. Whatever. Anyway, the thing is we've left our circle or been kicked out for bad behavior.

          So why is it now the government's job to take care of these people? They had their safety net - their circle. And they crapped on it. Why should taxpayers have the burden of caring for these people?

          Let them live on the outskirts of town by the railroad tracks out where the buses don't run. Don't let them sleep in doorways where store owners have to wake them up and make them move and then clean up their piss and crap and trash before the paying customers show up.

          My point is that nobody is alone. Everybody has somebody (usually a lot of somebodies) . And if you don't screw them, they'll help you in times of need. The only homeless are the ones that want to be homeless. Screw them. They quit.

              Spend less than you make to create a financial safety net.
              Have friends and family members you can count on to help you.
              Don't become addicted to drugs or booze.
              Pretty efficient answer ... i don't think he was looking for something serious. Getting serious though... we are all lost and homeless, a broken people ... trying to find a way home (heaven) .. all of this will rust and go back to dust and our kids children most likely won't see a lot of our faces.... until ... possibly, they see our faces.

              be good to people, help those hurting or homeless.. it does us good as them in so many ways.

                  I was going to say Portland, Oregon.

                  In other cities, it's mostly downtown or popular cities on the beach.

                    Not read any of the above^^
                    My 2 cents

                    Homeless people most likely have a mental disorder

                    They are providing for themselves and would like some compassion
                    That don't want your sympathy

                    Drug addicted persons would love your sympathy
                    They will work the system and their family until their fix is solved

                    Please
                    And know the difference about sympathy and compassion
                    Peace
                    Shute

                      your heaven ... is my spiritual war zone.

                      Idk if you will ever arise from the deep sleep you are in... but there's a world out there that you aren't seeing. It can be heavenly... but it ain't heaven veggie.

                        I've been working with homeless people for 18 years. Some people are just given a shitty hand, some shit on their own hand, and some enjoy shit.

                            600k homeless in the USA? Maybe on paper. Probably double that in reality.

                                  I was talking to OP.

                                  He wanted to know where they were.

                                            Best answer ever given. 100% true.



                                            Brainfreeze - I use to feel sorry for the homeless people here in the suburbs of Detroit... these fukkers are ALWAYS AT WALMART begging for money. These are the same people... hours later at the shi#$y tavern nearby. Or... walking around with a 40.

                                            I can't stand seeing these bums. Not going to run a nursery for these folks either. I guess you're just born or choose to be dependent? Doesn't take that many brain cells to work at McDonalds. Punch a few buttons on a computer... count some money... (the same money you count for your 40) hand the food over and smile. Repeat.

                                                  Brainfreeze - I use to feel sorry for the homeless people here in the suburbs of Detroit... these fukkers are ALWAYS AT WALMART begging for money. These are the same people... hours later at the shi#$y tavern nearby. Or... walking around with a 40.

                                                  I can't stand seeing these bums. Not going to run a nursery for these folks either. I guess you're just born or choose to be dependent? Doesn't take that many brain cells to work at McDonalds. Punch a few buttons on a computer... count some money... (the same money you count for your 40) hand the food over and smile. Repeat.
                                                  Sweet Dee will tell you ain't nobody got time for that!

                                                          A suburb is no place for a bum. People have jobs there.

                                                                      Too many people acting/looking like their homeless... and have no money. Man... I wish I could of woke up one day... and leeched off of others too. Sounds like fun. It's unfortunate... but way too many people are out there "hustling" others.

                                                                      I get it... some people were dealt a bad hand. But you can still make something of yourself. I believe majority of these people love to be dependent on others.
