Housing homeless veterans takes money from the rich.

Housing cheep workers and giving them phones lowers wages.

Most homeless veterans are disabled and it would cost a lot of money to re-enable them. They really need medicaid and social security disability. And access to an affordable living situation. Most VA hospitals are in big cities with a high cost of living. They've got no where to stay while trying to sort it out themselves if they even can. Without, assistance again.

The messed up thing is these guys could get benefits. They can't even get to the bank or clinic or phone store to use them tho. A lot of these guys need full time support or to live in group homes where ppl will help them with this stuff.

Group homes are expensive tho. And many have drug problems, get kicked out because of dementia, anger issues, civilians being genuinely dumbasses during moments of lucidity.

These guys know that the shit is hitting the fan. Some don't want welfare or to take from the pot. Many are black. A lot where probably kicked out over DUIs. Pot use or some other bullshit reason.

Veterans are stigmatized and some employers are prejudiced. Especially when Veterans apply for entry level jerbs. As a veteran myself I applied for about 80 one year and of the 8 interviews I got I was immediately declined for being over qualified (too old and would have done the right thing looking out for my fellow workers).

(I had a lot of help from ppl in the VA to get bennies)

We gotta burn it all down. I'm not like a communist. We gotta do something though. The bureaucracy is too damn high.

And ya it's a really shitty move to virtue signal illegals when Americans are dying en mass in the streets.

Both your parties are in the closet fascists tho. Just class instead of race based. On the front. There's layers of racism and sexism. I don't want to sound like a liberal tho cuz then you would ignore me. The big problem is corporations. Lobbies. Loans. Wallstreet. Insurance companies. (Real estate companies got outa hand 2) and now tech companies... I'm not saying no to capitalism. We need a lot of reform tho in transparency. Rules. Monopoly. Antitrust, stock market..etc...

(Always has been, before the hometeam boogeymens started up with their bullshit.) (Reagan was probably the last real president).

Republicans hate veterans. They hate the idea of helping anyone, unless they are millionaires. Then, give them everything.

I was being facetious. Every homeless person should be housed, veteran or no, even if it triples our taxes

Even people breaking the law deserve fairness and compassion, regardless of who they are, that doesn't mean freedom to do what they want and ABUSE the system (like so many billionaires "have to do to keep the economy going and employ slaves")🙏

I get that you're making an emotional argument, but why?

The ROI on that is terrible.

Why should we let a few global companies dominate markets, what is the ROI on that?

I am using right wing talking points against the right to show their blatant hypocrisy, it's the only thing I do here and it's why I have made so many great friends
