Where do they get money for food? How are they homed?

It baffles me as to how they get by. Everywhere you turn i.e. jobs, benefits, car etc people want to see your papers.

I would be homeless, probably, without any official documentation.

For instance- what happens if you order something you need for a certain event and they SAY it's going to be there on time, but isn't? What if you order something and they say it's available, but then you get an e-mail 3 days later saying it isn't? So- do you all think shopping online still outweighs foot-work shopping?

Why does society automatically think that people who smoke cannabis are useless, stupid stains on society?
Why do you put us in the same group as crack heads and heroin addicts?
I have a wonderful relationship, I am creative and passionate and i have a HND and a degree! I know many cannabis smokers who are very intelligent happy, down to earth people!

What gives you the right to look down your nose at us?
Do you not drink alcohol?

Why do you put your two penneth worth of bullsh*t in when you havent got a clue?

Just wondering...you can answer openly under the 'cloak' of this avenue here...what do others outside of California think of us in terms of the way we think, dress, spiritual, creative or not, grounded, are connected with issues etc. Would appreciate insight.

there was an article mentioning names of over 700 convicts sent to Australia 200 yrs ago, and that any Australian sharing a surname with a convict would get a free lunch in London. Does anyone know the website where the list of convict names are?

Why can't we just accept each other and our choices? Why does this seem sociatally impossible?

Do you think a black comedian,lashing out at a white heckler ,using terms like "honkey" "cracker" or " white devil" would create the same outrage as the Richards thing? Would it even be news?

Currently in my town there has been a significant increase of beggars, general low lives, and crime. The sense of the community is really low, everyone seems miserable and unmotivated..ive been talking to people and they agree that the change has been quite dramatic, its always been a poor area but something has changed for the worst,...it feels like there is not much hope...has this been happening anywhere where you live?

I am writing a paper on Public Policy and the Feminization of Poverty (great subject, huh?)

Well, I have found a lot of information from several sources claiming that AFDC (Medicaid, etc.) is responsible for out-of-wedlock pregnancies and that many women choose to be sexually active because they know they can get help in supporting the resulting children.

Other information claims that women who would otherwise seek and find employment choose to remain unemployed or under-employed in order to keep their incomes low enough to receive AFDC benefits.

I have an opinon on this, but don't want to share it yet. I wonder what you people out in yahoo-land think.

especially as there are so many bars, clubs, associations where they can find like minded people. Why trouble random blokes in coffee shops, trains, shops, pubs, at work etc? Maybe its just living in Brighton?

Me first? Okay. Best thing = I'm intelligent (able to learn from mistakes, see two sides of an argument, etc). Worst thing = I lapse into arrogance from time to time.

We've all got something. I'll break the ice by telling mine - Power Rangers. I mean, it's gotta take a lot of effort to make something so dodgy... and they give us cute young fellas to look at...
