the boot strap mentality is going to die a long and slow death. Even when we're being fed factual reasons why people find themselves in situations that lead to homelessness and how little programs and policy decisions actually help in this country.There are some people on here who have a really disgusting attitude towards the homeless.
Also another positive for the homeless to have pets is the pets often look out for them and are the first line of defense if an attacker tries to run up on them. It happens far too often, especially those still carrying items from their former life that can be sold off at a pawn shop or on the street.
