just because you are homeless doesn't mean you have to look it. If you look it, you will remain homeless for far longer than if you do your best to take care of yourself despite your living situation. When we frame the concept of homelessness in terms of a temporary or chronic problem, the chronic homeless population usually suffer from mental illness, I can not prove that but I'd bet my last dime on it. Depression sets in and they feel they are too worthless and unwanted to get out of their own rut. No one bothers gospel to the homeless that look homeless tho to get them up out of themselves either. It isn't a matter of poverty, it's a matter of mental health. Poverty is what causes temporary homelessness. The lack of funds replenishes when someone finds a good palpating job.we really need to look at things that Bernie Sanders has spoken on in the past, make people face the reality that mega churches are corrupt, force them to pay taxes and move on with helping the homeless by creating communities for them. There are plenty of places that have empty buildings where homeless could come together and be safe from the elements, from starving. It is deciduous that we have any much less different kinds of homeless problems. We are American we should not have this problem. Someone asked me today how I could be homeless but not look like it.
