Homeless People

If you saw someone that you know, living on the street, would you offer them a place to stay with you?

Homelessness is a human condition. Someone you know living on the street is like coming upon a tortoise without a shell. If you are a tortoise, it would be like accommodating another tortoise in your shell. It's not an intelligent thing to do.

@sree251 I like your analogy of the tortoise without a shell, it not only makes one feel what the tortoise feels, but understand that you won't live long without a shell, or home. There's no protection.

@Dv8rs There is also no solution in helping the homeless through stuffing two tortoises in one shell. If we don't throw away trillions of dollars on wars, there would be no homelessness and hunger. And most importantly, no danger of instigation of violence and military attack from America.

@sree251 sree251 for president, I like your ideas, and you're correct. We might even have a surplus.

@Dv8rs Being correct doesn't mean much unless the world is populated by only you and me. Then, there is no need for president.
