I don't think that it's the government's fault why they are homeless. Maybe a part of it (not being able to accommodate everyone). The more at fault is the person himself or herself because they won't land there if it weren't probably for their bad decisions. If you grew up being in poverty, it would be hard to get away with it, but if you do good to people, you would eventually get out of it.

This is not always true if most of the population is poor and there are not many chances to get out of it then you may end being poor despite your best efforts.

More precisely, they just do not give a chance that they could provide themselves normally. Just others it will be unprofitable.

There are more empty homes than homeless - so what does that say about the species!

I think that says there are misallocation of money in the economy, just look at the bubble and crash and crisis that happened a few years ago that was caused by real estate, people wanted to make money and a bunch of houses that were not needed and that no one could pay were created.

In the United States, if you look at the homeless people, then you will find that for most of them the condition was caused as a result of drug addiction, gambling, mental illness.etc. The government can't do much in these cases.

Can't or won't? In the US there are entire neighborhoods where people live in trailers. it is the richest country!!! I think that people need to educate financial literacy, and it is in the power of the state.

Yeah, as long as there are government officials that are corrupt, there will be no ending of countless poverty in every part of the world. They are assigned to a higher position because people are expecting more from those people but sometimes those expectations lead to frustrations, and that's what makes people suffer most.

Not sometimes, but almost always it leads to disappointments and it will always be so. People in power care only about themselves and do not want to think about the lives of others.

I agree. Maybe a person from a poor family can work all his life on low-paid work all his life and he will be missed only by food, and he will not earn a living in his whole life.

Homeless is a lifestyle. No one can make me live at home and be sober! Cool

In most cases, they can't because people choose to live the way they do, whether they choose to do drugs, join a gang, or just decide they won't work. Also, yes, the US might be the righest country but we're also a very broad and varied country. You just can't compare inner-city Chicago to the California Hills.

That is in united states how about other countries especially third world countries and developing and underdeveloped currencies in Africa. The government are the major curse of people suffering today. Most of the leaders loot the countries treasury and spent the nation assets In under to remain in power why they countries men are home and live in poverty.

In the third world nations, people don't practice family planning. So the population is increasing, while the resources remain limited. This is the root cause of poverty and homelessness in the third world nations, especially in Africa and Asia.

Yes, in such countries people do not think at all about family planning. They live only for their own pleasure, but they do not care where their children will live.

I don't think it's the government's fault. It is the individual, to have a better home and good living, we help ourselves to feed and get a decent job. We cannot blame everything from government.

Yes, the government can not be guilty of the fact that a person is lazy. For example, in the countryside you can build a house with firewood yourself and have a small garden around it, but you need to work for it. It's easier to say that the state does not want to provide a chic mansion with a swimming pool.

In first world countries the opposite happens Grin

when poor person starts to chop down wood for self-made house, state employees arrive to send him to prison. I am not even kidding. Unless, you buy permit to build a house of pre-agreed dimensions and buy PRE-CHOPPED certified wood, you willl pay fine and get the house torn down on your expense. Or go to jail and pay for it later. Europe these days...

So government refuses you the option to take care for yourself by both repression and taxation, so you might think - if I just stay in line and work hard, Ill get my chance. No you wont, since government is run like a family bussiness - even in western countries, its ranks are pretty much closed to lower classes. And the ever increasing taxes along with artifical inflation will crush any possibility that you will just save for the future.

Class war has not ended. It is waged from above by both right and LEFT elitists against working class people.

Well said! Government is poison and it's the main cause of poverty.
In the old days there were no homeless people, if you wanted to work you could build your own house and earn honest money by working in farming, construction and so on.
Now you need permits for everything and if you don't get them you get fined.
Just a few examples of stupid laws made to enslave people and make their lives miserable:
You need a permit to build a house on your own land.
You can't build it by yourself, you need a project made by an architect.
Nowadays you need energy performance certificate. This means that you must have an efficient house. If you decide to build a non-insulated wooden house heated with a coal stove, you're not allowed to! You have to be ecologically correct Angry

You can't hunt and fish without a permit, you can't own a gun and you can't bury a dead family member or animal beside your house, even if you have no neighbours so it wouldn't bother anyone.

It really matters how efficient the government is in the programs in which they provide to deter people from being homeless. If there isn't much oversight over a certain program like the block grants in the US for community development, it could lead to the money that is supposed to be going to the poor folks just being wasted by politicians.

If the money is used well, it could actually help to ensure that less homeless people are prevalent due to the community being built in order to house them. I would have to say in the end here, it depends on government and competency and the amount of greed people in the government / hired employees for gov have.

Sad, but that's just how the world works.

That does not necessarily means that if we have more goverment control, then the bigger part of society suffers because of the growing crime rates and because of becoming homeless.

The big problem with all kind of social benefits, is that it attracts some specific kind of people, that do not want to go to any work, but instead they just prefer to do literally nothing, and watch TV and drink beer.
It is possible thanks to these benefits given by goverment, because if it would not exist, then they would have to go to the work, to eat or drink anything, right? So why do we pay them for doing nothing?! That seems like a really stupid idea for me.

People become homeless sometimes, because of the law enforcement. If someone really poor gets caught with a big amount of drugs, then he will be sentenced with a long penalty.
After that punishment, the unit will not be able to take part in a normal society, the bars have corrupted his mind and such a person can literally do only bad things, after many years spent in "legal" captivity.
