Can somebody tell me why the heck I've spent the last couple of days arguing over homelessness with someone who literally believes the earth is flat?

@robertsnj Dude was saying that if anybody's homeless longer than 6 months, it's their own fault. Then he went off on a whole tangent about how easy it is to get a job.

@LordShadowfire so to recap month 1-5 could be circumstance but bam month 6 you own this vagrant! Is that correct? sidebar does he know you have to put your home address on a job application to be considered for employement. Can't be "under the bridge"

@robertsnj He quite clearly doesn't, and claims to have been able to hold down two jobs while he was homeless.

@LordShadowfire there it is. You got info. He was on hard times at one point and turned things around. He may have exagerrated the details or he may not have. In the USA at least we actually have a portion of our population that live in cars or in cars at car lots and work. If you went to youtube and typed in working homeless you could really go down a rabbit hole. It is sad to watch.
