    No one is on the street because they are lazy. What an entirely ignorant and stupid comment. Come to the West coast idiot. I can show you plenty of people that are lazy ass mother fuckers among the homeless. Not all, but enough.

      No lazy person wants to be homeless. The amount of stress and anxiety cause by being homeless would crush you. To be lazy a person needs shelter, food and clean water, clean cloths, and good health. Homelessness is about survival.

      You’re always going to have someone looking to gain from the system. The thing is, I don’t care. Most people want a sense of fulfillment more than they want anything else, and that usually comes from being productive. Not always in the “get a job, earn money” way, but in the “I’m going to create, in a way that makes me happy” sense. Unfortunately, for a lot of people, even finding that thing that fulfillment is such an upward battle because it requires a ton of resources. Time, energy, money. Things the destitute don’t have. Let the few be lazy, fuck it you’ll never get rid of lazy from society, stop trying, it’s just hurting the regular man. Focus on bringing the bottom up, and the whole of society benefits.
