The attitude seems to be that we should simply do away with problems rather than attempt to solve them, and any suffering that causes is viewed as acceptable rather than facing up to the real challenge in the first place.<br /><br />In Britain, we seem intent on creating poverty ghettoes, as it becomes increasingly impossible for all but the wealthiest to live in more prosperous areas. If homeless people die there, I suppose the disposal problem would also go away – as long as nice people don't get to see the bodies, is there really a difficulty at all?David Beesonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00393977902379776532noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7520303675367700778.post-76054223211330278042015-08-02T19:32:25.696+01:002015-08-02T19:32:25.696+01:00I agree, David.

I see our solution to homelessness here in the good old U.S. of A. is to place beds of prongs under our bridges so homeless people won't go there. some cities have outlawed feeding the homeless or sheltering them in our churches. I guess somebody I'm supposed to consider wiser than me thinks that by outlawing homelessness we make the homeless go away. It appears that the only solution for the homeless person is to die--but then there would be a disposal problem, wouldn't there?FAith A.
