I am trying to save a friend in Chicago..that's homeless..

every homeless person has a different story, and a different path out of homelessness. In a rational world, there would be a hierarchy of support...

Immediate family,

Close friends,

Church,

Informal community (private meal kitchens, shelters, etc.)

Government.

In that order.
The state should support the homeless. That is caring socialism.
 
There is a special place in hell for the self righteous do gooder.

The state should warehouse the homeless.

The first question you need to ask is ... 'Why is he homeless?'

Odds are, it's not because he doesn't have a home.

This is the USA where" tough shit" is not just a metaphor.
 
I can do it myself, but my angle is I wanted to see how many people cared .
Good for you and God bless. I've helped out a few people over the years with a place to stay and food to eat. Usually relatives or friends who were temporarily down on their luck. I've been homeless before, living out of a car, so I'm sensitive to the plight of the homeless. Sometimes all they need is someone to care enough to help a bit.

I watched that movie in the 70s on a shitty B&W TV. Scareed the Baby Jebuz out of me.

Don't be scared. Soylent Green is now gluten free.

Are they using corn meal now?

Yea, freaking gross that is.

You can't get a light a fluffy human cracker without the gluten.
You are just not right.

Only in your crusty pantiez, MG.
 
I think there are a lot more people who care than those who don't. Some are in a position to help and they do, and others in the same position choose not to. A lot of us donated to gofundme for Gracie, no? And there are other ways to help people in need rather than giving money, which IMHO is a little like giving a man a fish today instead of a fishing pole.

Finally, it is a mistake to be wasting your time and energy getting mad at the uncaring. First of all, you might be mistaken in your assessment and 2nd of all what difference will it make? Better to focus on yourself, what can you do to make somebody's life better? Leave the judgment to others, there's no benefit to it.

Did you make that mistake?
