Why is the homeless man homeless? Was his job shipped overseas and there was no other job to be found? Did he lose everything to a hurricane or tornado with no meaningful help from FEMA? Is he mentally ill and not able to afford his meds because of the outrageous prescription costs so he cannot hold a job? Did he suffer an accident or illness that cost him his job and/or ability to work or keep a roof over his head? Or is he simply a lazy, soulless, drug or alcohol-addicted bum who is homeless cuz he likes the "freedom"?

VERY few folks on the public dole are there because they want to be. We MUST help out those who are more unfortunate and in need than we are. It is our duty as Americans and as human beings. "And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity."
