Go Rally To Fight Rich Fat Cat Homeless People

102507oscar.jpg
Hey, know what sucks? Responsibility. Right? Bills to pay, babies to take care of, jobs to do work at, family members to wish well on their birthdays. Man, all of that sucks. Well, there's a good way to get rid of it, and it's just as easy as sleeping out on the street every night!

That's right, you need to try homelessness! It's the "consultant" or "online stock trader" of the 2000s! Why, if you're homeless, you have no responsibility, and you get to live in a mansion or something. Or you live on a fun street with giant birds and elephants and two gay dudes and some blue and red furry blobs of indeterminate origin!

This man says homelessness seems to be worsening: "It's starting to be younger people, in their 20s not in their 40s, it's real bad." That man you just heard says some people choose to be homeless in order to avoid responsibility.

There's a rally starting right about now at City Hall where you can go rally to end homelessness, so they stop their freespending ways and start giving back to the rest of us working slobs.

And some people write about homelessness in order to avoid their responsibility of publishing photos of Alycia Lane in a bikini.

this is one of the saddest articles I have ever read. Most people who are homeless do not choose it. There are many reasons why people become homeless - sickness, mental illness, loss of job, loss of family, can't affort house/rent prices. In fact, those of us who are lucky enough to have enough money to pay for a house may be guilty of not sharing what we have with those who are less fortunate. God forgive us for our greed and selfishness and lack of generousity and for our cold hearted approach to people who have so little.
