Shoot, I wish I was fancy enough to have a dumpster to live in. No, I lived in several places such as underpasses, parks, and sometimes stayed with old friends. It wasn't until I realized that I was causing my own problems (with the help of a true friend that refused to coddle me) and found a little thing nobody seems to know much about today - "Personal Responsibility", that I was able to overcome my problems. He let me stay in the basement as long as I helped out around the house, gave me a month to clean up my act and find work to pay rent or else I was back out in the cold. If it wasn't for him caring about me in the right way, I wouldn't be where I am today. Everybody else just gave me a few bucks to get rid of me like I was just any homeless person on the sidewalk.If all it took for you to get out of homelessness is some "tough love," then you were never really in much trouble to begin with. What, were you living in a dumpster behind a gourmet restaurant?
You truly can not understand this; you haven't dined with both sides--even when you "agree" with the "right", you cannot comprehend what all of "this", "is".
You do not/can't understand "how and what", when you haven't been at the "top" and "bottom" feel.
It goes deeper than you're willing to dive in to.
Sexual jokes arise.
I don't know what it is, but I have this urge for "anus pounders" right now. Hmm.
Ok, if you say so. I guess you didn't catch the line I said earlier (not to you, I don't think) about how the food line never ends because people keep lining up at the end. We need to fix our immigration issue before we can truly start fixing our poverty/homeless issues. If we keep letting in people who won't work for themselves or sneak in with no intention of assimilating, and the democrats keep giving them priority over our own citizens, we will never put a dent in this problem.And it's still barely enough to fund the operation of soup kitchens. Like I said, if charity could have solved the problem, it never would have been a problem to begin with. Veterans are on the streets while corporations make record profits. It's completely asinine.
Yeah, of course, corporations are made to make money. The problem with increasing the minimum wage too fast is that these corporations just have to move quicker in their "plans".It has nothing to do with the demand for a living wage. Automation will save corporations money even in parts of the country where minimum wage is at its lowest. That's why they're pushing for it.
Here is an example of what raising the minimum wage can cause from 3 years ago. It is a reality today and only getting worse:
Ex-McDonald's CEO suggests replacing employees with robots amid protests
Ed Rensi mentions bringing in robots as thousands of McDonald’s workers demand a union and $15 an hour minimum wage at the shareholders meeting.
As thousands of low-wage workers plan to protest at McDonald’s annual shareholder meeting in Chicago on Thursday the company’s former US boss has warned them: if the minimum wage goes up, McDonald’s is likely to replace them with robots.
