Please don't rake offense to this, because I don't want to offend you at a personal level, but that idea is about the most idiotic thing I've ever
heard suggested on this website. Work camps? I can see that being a slippery slope toward creating a slave underclass.
let me set the record straight here.
When I say homeless I am referring to those who do not have jobs. Not a poor guy who simply lost is house and is out of luck but has steady
employment.
The candidates for work camps would be determined by the three strikes rule.
1st strike: not having a Job
2nd Strike: being Homeless
3rd Strike: cant provide for themself
The work camp is a terrible name. Rebranding would be needed, Im sure a think tank could do a good job, but Ill give it a shot even though im not
getting payed for it. They should be called Care centers.
Not only would care centers be a place where the homeless are given work duties they would also be a part of social repatriation everyday through the
use of videos, presentations and lectures that give them the tools to survive in the world while teaching them how to live and more importantly how to
think as an american. Stressing our roots as a free country, that though we are free you cant sit around and destroy the world around you that we
have built just because the homeless hate Americans. 10 out of 12 homeless in philadelphia are war vets who express their disdain for the american
way of way of life by tearing down what other brave soldiers have fought for and bled for and DIED FOR!
Now dont let it come off harsh, this is something that is like a rehab. homeless people are broken either in spirit or their confidence to name a
few factors. If people care about them then help them by giving them the tools to help themselves through these "Care Centers". Since I care about
others so Im shocked the rest of you feel better watching them rot in the streets!!!!
They have every right to be an american and live the american dream!
