Can we build HOTELS FOR THE HOMELESS. Staff. House the worthy homeless for six months while training them for jobs doing just that. After six months new bunch homeless to train and distrubute back to an assemblance of life as it should be? I heard there are 80000 homeless in L.A. only...sigh, that is a shame.

Evangelize them when they are in those hotels so that they can have the power of God operating in their changed lives and you might make a dent in the population. Otherwise they will for the most part still be slaves to the behaviors that led to their condition in the first place.
Sure, there are some homeless people who got there because of some unfortunate set of circumstances like getting sick, or having some accident, or some other out of the ordinary occurrence. But most have become that way because of behavioral deficiencies that won't disappear with only a temporary helping hand.

I hate to say it, but a lot of homeless people are homeless because of bad choices they've made. It's not necessarily their fault that they've been put in that situation, but it is their fault for trying to do more. A person on the street can in fact spend an entire day begging for money in a heavily populated area and sleep in a homeless shelter at night. It is possible to move out of homelessness with the right attitude and knowledge. The big problem is that most homeless people have just given up.
Keep in mind, I'm not saying ALL homeless people. Some people were born with practically nothing. But it's the junkie sleeping under a bridge because rent money would take away from his fix money. It's the alcoholic parents that park the car in the Wal-Mart parking lot because they're too stubborn to give up drinking to get a job. Drugs are powerful things. They change your mind without your complete consent. It's mind-rape.

When Ronnie Rayguns stripped the funding from the hospitals that used to take care of the mentally unstable, the homeless population exploded.. Of course, think about it... if you were homeless, where else can offer such nice climate? Who the heck wants to be homeless in Fargo N.D. ? Then there is a little thing called Welfare that could be changed to Workfare..
