Are we aiming to provide or hide from the poor?

Where have all our heads gone? There are citites that intentionaly send the homeless to other citites using greyhound or scattering them away from tourists sites. It's ridiculous when the vollunteer state, tries to hide its poverty. Shall we boast about the hungry sitting under bridges of cities? It's sickening to look down on other's financial disabilities. I see more effort from cops moving one homeless man from place to place than our councilmen planning ways to help. My mom works for the mayor of Nashville, so I get a healthy dose of Nashville Politics unfortunetly. However, my concerns spread across the entire United States.

This is a really complicated issue today, you have to consider each homeless person's situation. How did he end up on the streets? You can't assume that every bum just up and quit their job and left their family to be with the dogs on the streets. You have to consider our economy, there are fewer jobs and less pay. Bills are steadily and perpetually increasing each year. The price of the dollar bill dwindling down. Our citizens are struggling, kids are going hungry. Why can't we see the tru problem instead of disposing of them as easy as possible and make sure they aren't flies by our ears?

On the other hand, the government is not your mother. Do you expect them to hold your hand after you were fired? Do you want America to be the country to wipe your ass because citizens can't be responsible? I don't think so. There are plenty of examples of hard working middle class Americans who deal with the inconviences of our economy but still manage to make a living. Red Cross in Nashville drove around popular homeless areas to offer a warm place to stay as temperatures crept to below freezing. Men turned those offers down to stay in the cold, bodies the next morning were found by burned out trashcans.

Could you blame them? I wouldn't want to be in the position to rely on others to amke you survive the next day. After asking and asking, rude people turning you down, cold nights, hunger...I would not accept anymore.

There's so many perspectives and exceptions about homelessness. However not enough complications to put forth the effort of hiding our homelessness. I will continue later.
