I sure wouldn't call him that! I think it's nice what he's doing. And there has to be some restrictions and a contract, otherwise he'd end up with someone who moves in, does nothing all day but surf the internet and is lazy and you end up watching HER kid.

I've thought of opening up my house to someone in need, and I'd have a contract and a clear understanding of what I would tolerate in my house and what I wouldn't. Work in or around my house for free rent and board. If that person doesn't stand up to the contract and expects to become a dependent of mine, then they are out the door.

We are fatally indifferent to and paranoid of others.
Look at how we view other faiths.
Thats why we're screwed as a species without some divine help.IMO
I'll try to stay under the bridge.....thanks for putting up....

Yea but you don't know me... I'm a good guy... I'm sur if you spent five minutes with me, you'de think differently.

I have a good soul. I have my sins too, I'm not perfect, and I have my bad habits, but I know my heart is in the right place.

Look, my wife is from Mexico... I've spent months upon months in that country. Spending time there gives you a diferent perspective on the American Dream. (it's called the American Dream because you have to be asleep to believe it)

I just want to help... and the title of this thread included "help needed"

So pardon me for brainstorming ideas to help the victims of this economic crisis.

Like I said before, yes you have a good heart but since you have kids you need to think about your idea. You don't want a crazy woman coming into your home where your wife and kids also stay.

My suggestion, you should do an interview process to make sure you pick the right person. I agree with what you are doing, just make sure you go by it the correct way.

Oh, duh! hehe I see what you mean now.
I didnt think that would be a factor because if that person
felt manipulated they would just leave, no harm done.
I never think people can ever do the mean things to
others that they do! My bad kinda!
Did that make sense?
People can do weird stuff sometimes! Me is strange also!

I've spent months in deep south Mexico and almost everybody I met there was greater in heart than this. They'd have taken the lady and child in as a family member - and a person loved and accepted is usually a person who WILLINGLY contributes. I deeply respect the people I met in Mexico.

Second, actually, I thought you were playing "devil's advocate" here to get some thought-provoking dialogue going ... to which we all obliged.

Third, no hard feelings. I have family members like you and so understand how you can be a "good" person. I still agree to disagree though.

What you propose is closer to Corporate Dictatorship than "Socialism".
