It's a weird and cruel system that can
produce so much wealth for some and yet others with kids are homeless. One of the richest countries in the world, a supposed
developed civilised country, and we have young mothers desperate and
depressed, because the can't get a decent home to raise their kids.
This deprives these kids from developing at the proper rate and
stifles their potential. An injustice that should not be tolerated in
any civilised country. However, it is encouraging that some are
coming together and taking direct action in an attempt to remedy
their appalling situation. Let's hope the idea catches on.
“Stop making people homeless. Stop making kids miss school. It’s not fair. You get to go home to your nice homes, while people here are struggling. People are here crying (they were – a woman in the office was crying, because she was homeless and trying to sort that out). They’re stressed, depressed. It’s not right. You’ve got a place here where you’re meant to help people. You’re meant to help people. You’re not helping people.”
