Why %age of homeless people is rising in developed countries?

Before, we start blaming the government, poor healthcare, administration and etc.. Let's take into consideration their choices that lead them to this state.

Yes, not all homeless are irresponsible and addicts but most are. Some homeless folks are ambitious, talented and have great potential. Yet, they end up with a miserable life. It hurts a lot when I see them in such a state. Simply because they don't deserve to be there. Just one wrong decision in their career path and they end-up like this or when someone steals their years of hard work. Best part, such folks despite such issues do community services to help the society. God bless them...🙏

Folks who are homeless and addicts, I have no respect for them. No matter what sobbing story they tell. Worst, some of them pursue the path of crime to fulfill their addiction needs.

Majority of the folks (apart from the unique cases I mentioned above) who are homeless are the ones who cherish life on Credit, are into gambling & etc. and have no savings. Once they go bankrupt, they become homeless. Now, no government is responsible for their poor condition.

There are folks from working class who save throughout life for the better future of next generation. They have minimal earnings too but they help themselves and God does help them.🙏

The only thing you're really saying is that it's not always easy to get out from under,no matter how you got there.

@SW-User It is never easy to get to anywhere and where we get to depends on the choices we make.🙏

@SoLeRiMix there's reasons people make bad choices

@SW-User Then such folks should face the consequences themselves. Not look upto others for any kind mercy or help.

@SoLeRiMix they have lots of consequences, but still need support. No easy answers really. I don't condone hand holding and abuse of the system. It seems we don't do well with helping people get out from under.
