    most homeless people aren’t alcoholics or drug addicts, btw…

    but, yep… most of the time, you’re spending all of your energy on meeting the lowest tier of maslow’s hierarchy… by the time you get some of that, there’s not much left in you to go and “get a job”
    which, btw, most jobs very much will not be hiring homeless people, in particular…

    not to mention just grooming, showering, and bathing to get that job is pretty hard to come by, in most hostile designed cities…

      And that’s why a “shelter” isn’t enough. Heating, water and electricity should be covered as well, as long as necessary.
