Maybe the problems of our country are NOT the people on the bottom.

Why can't they get a job?
Why can't they put an effort into getting an education?
Why can't they set aside their lifestyle for a few years in order to gain a career?

The right believes only lazy drug addicts become homeless. Not people who lost their house when the market tanked. Or the people who couldn't afford rent because prices have doubled. Or the people laid off by corporations whose CEOs took millions and millions in bonuses while firing thousands of employees.

If you are homeless? lifestyle??...
- you spend most of your time just trying to survive (find somewhere to get food, create/find shelter)
- you have NO money so purchasing anything isn't possible (decent clothes, access to communication, medication, etc.)
- you can't leave your stuff to go anywhere as it will get stolen
- you can't apply for a job without an address
- you are not mobile to move anywhere else without money or means
- you don't necessarily get help from government for any of this
- your friends, at that point, are in the same exact situation and just as desperate
Why is the right always so predictable in it's inability to actually look at the complexity and desperation of the situation. If you aren't even on the ladder, you can't climb rungs.

I agree with you all government is the problem.

Government is the ONLY ANSWER.
You contradict yourself and make absolutely no sense. Why are you trying to tell us what to believe?
What I disagree with all you right wingers about is how we solve the corporate communism problem we have in this country.

You can't seem to let go of this communism socialism thing and posting about it. Trouble is your posts seem to be suffering from personality disorder. One day you like Mao and Stalin, the next day you're allegedly neutral, now you're an anarchist? I recommend Whig for the post tomorrow.
