92. I see your frustration with the term they, let me clarify, they are "us"
Like it or not we on the left of the political sphere have to work along side everyday ordinary citizens whom consider themselves right of the political arena because in reality it is those in positions of power both left and right and those in between whom are not fighting hard enough for "all" the people, proof being in the votes up on capital hill and I see little chance of it changing any time soon.

Having witnessed pretty much the bare minimum amount of empathy and aid given our nations homeless by middle, left and right average citizens I have come to the conclusion that it is as you state, blaming one group will not help to solve anything for those in need.

Watching the amount of coverage I have witnesses by the media for those Americans facing hardships after disaster after disaster the last several years verses say twenty years ago I am coming to the conclusion that there is no doubt left that we the people weather homeless or not have little to no representation interested in vesting, time, money, as well as needful services and are slowing being forced to realize we and we alone will soon have only ourselves to depend on and like it or not may have to resort to a revolution soon if we ever hope to regain any resemblance of standing not only in our country but inside the very offices that sit others deciding our fate simply ignoring if or at all it is a benefit to the majority of average citizens.

It is not impossible to find that one day though never having thought possible that the homeless could become more normalcy for the average citizen than one ever dreamed possible which is the reason that leaves me with the belief that if we do not fight for "us" together instead of this ignorant constant belittling of each other than we are bound to find ourselves losing the fight to regain our country back from those whom have no desire to share the bounty inside our very borders.
