4. Naw,
that would be too easy. Lets start a support house with them. All of them. Help with their work experiences and get them the proper jobs that they meet. Do not let them out of the house until they have enough money saved to make it on their own, and watch them for a year to make sure that they can. Baby steps, baby steps.

GEP

10. No
I am serious. Put these people in school. No more of these grants that go to kids that have parents that can afford their kids education. No more walfare to the women that have all of multiple kids out of wedlock, (make them work!) there are many ways of taking care of that. Put these homeless into places where they can better themselves. Most of these people are very smart, beyond us.

11. "walfare?"
is that the welfare wal-mart workers get because they are paid so low that they qualify for social benefits?

5. Or we could date them
Think about it, after the date we can just drop them off anywhere.

8. Sadly, when the weather is far too hot or far too cold or when
they need medical treatment, they will commit petty crimes so that they can get "3 hots and a cot".

But hey, just don't let them panhandle near me! :sarcasm: :argh:
