Because homelessness is a choice

@TheSacredOne how does it just happen?

@VioletDreams lost your job, all your money gets eaten up by bills, bills eat you alive, can't get a job fast enough and out on the streets you go. House could flood, burn down, get destroyed by a tornado. Yea it happens.

@VioletDreams Landlords who cheat their tenants. Councils who are too slow in providing rent relief when they are well aware their client is entitled to it.

@Picklebobble2 @TheSacredOne with all that being said, are you saying a person should accept their homelessness? Should they stop trying and just resolve to living on the streets?

@VioletDreams They shouldn't give up.

@TheSacredOne but if they do, is that not a choice they made? Im not trying to discredit what brought them to that place. Im just saying they dont necessarily have to stay in that place.
