It generally seems to be from the attitude that if you're homeless it's becuase you've failed at capatalism. There are lots of shelters that take in the homeless and get them work, there are lots of 'things' you can do, but unless you're one lucky hobo odds are it's going to be absurdly difficult to get back on your feet, and there are lots who dismissively instruct them to get a job, as though they're one can of beans and a furiously executed hobo dance away from victory. If a hurricane basically comes in and ruins an entire city's shit it's a tragedy, becuase the devestation hasn't come you failing at life. (lol!) That's how I take it, although I agree, we've got oodles of homeless and poor people and even more flooding across the border, we're amassing a humorously absurd amount of debt and we're still just tossing money at other countries? Eh? We've got problems here, it's like tossing cash at the neighbors while several of your many kids hasn't eaten yet.
