only in America where people say " I've got my problems, f'em" . Those of you with that state of mind are pathetic.

Our society is one that is needs-based. People survive because their needs are met on a daily basis. Parents give us food, teachers educate us, someone givesus shelter, etc. etc.-- Homelessness is a result of needs not being met.... consider this:
Our country asked for young men to fight a war in Vietnam to provide the US with security and safety (meeting needs)-- when they came home, we couldn'teven meet their basic needs... and many of them ended up being homeless.
So yea, i'm going to feel bad for homeless people regardless of how "annoying" they can be, how they got that way, and what type of things theymight say to me because their basic needs aren't being met.

You can't judge all of them based on a few rotten apples. Some of them really do have problems or hit a major bump in the road.Originally Posted by phillypac

Sometimes I feel bad for them. The problem is you dont know, which ones are really homeless and which ones are pretending to be. Some dudes make a living ofthat.
