Our economy is doing swell with temp angencies and homeless shelters and people willing to live that way!?
Question:
What other choice is there? no $$$$$
Homeless people can not get National Insurance numbers and therefore cannot work for temping agencies.it is against the law...thats what makes them homeless....you think they choose to be homeless? I think the real point is why have the British government forgotten about these people to look after 000's of illegal imigrants who are housed, clothed and fed via our taxes...yet our homeless walk the streets looking for an answer.!!
Yeah, the economy is swell where I live.they are all living in 600,000 McMansions...highly mortgaged no doubt.
As for the homeless...many are mentally ill or have disease. I wouldn't trade places with them as I could not continually exist (not live) in that manner. I'd be the first off the bridge.
Like it or not many of us are just a few months from being homeless ourselves. Most of us exist on credit with mortaged houses, cars, highways built with high yield bond financing and gas with pay for with credit cards. But for the grace of God we could all be among them. It could happen.
I agree, what other choice is there?
I'm at uni & like most of the students i know temping is the only available option. No firm wants to take you on because your a full time student & part time work is mostly about fitting around the employer. At least we want to work & not go onto benefits during the summer.
& who says that all homeless people want to buy drugs, some people just get unlucky, it could happen to anyone, one foul twist & any of us could be down on our luck & once you're down it's hard to get up again.
If the government were to get better help & support for the poor of this country may be it wouldn't be in such a mess & may be people would want to be more ambitious & help themselves.
