I don't think a lot of people understand what homeless
people are actually about. Most of them have had chances,
and they choose not to take them. Most of the kids do have
houses to go back to, but they choose not to. If the
government were to inforce manditory drug testing and rehab,
then some of those people might be able to start real lives,
but they don't want to.

partly because a large part of that group has been through
the "helping mill" a few times already and have grown
weary.

it's a very complex problem. a lot of these people have
become very alienated with what is seen as "normal life" and
have no frame of reference anymore, the question then is how
well-educated their choice is. some of them have pretty much
become irreparably damaged, as it were. this does not mean
they should be forgotten about, or the problem dumped. it
means that some other form of solution should be found, one
that involves the person and is also designed for that
person. a general program to rehabilitate will only alienate
further, perhaps.

maybe it's a bit like some chronic mental diseases - they
can't be cured completely, but the person in question can
learn how best to live with his or her disease.

I think it should be left to huge corporations to donate.
Microsoft, Coca-Cola, Nike, Nestle, Universal, AOL, Sky
etc....

that would be cool, all the people being rescued should
first and foremost be hoisted into a This Evenings Disasters
Sponsor t-shirt.
