RE: I Checked-In To A New York City Homeless Shelter For 3 Months, Here's What Happened (Part I)

in #life6 years ago

I completely agree about neoliberalism's hand in creating this mess. The homeless need jobs, money management education, and mental health counseling, so they can stand on their own two feet, not handouts. And instead it's created this co-dependence system where they make just enough to get by, but never enough to get out the welfare and homeless system, so they keep coming back. Then depression sets in and they're completely demotivated to do anything. Thanks for reading!
