That's a mighty high horse you're on. Sometimes we need to get knocked off..... The majority of homeless folks are veterans and children. Take a look at the definative stats on kids in Foster Care. And if you check with the School system and other agencies, you'll find that there's a lot more kids homeless. Living in a Foster Home is usually not that great, and 20 - 25,000 kids age out every year. And there is no hiding that fact. There's also runaways, and throw aways. None of these kids could possibly manage thier lives. So keep rationalizing why you don't help people in need!
