Americans, as we put food in our mouths, millions of our fellow Americans cannot feed themselves or their children. America is too great to have poverty and homelessness.
This government misunderstands and miscalculates the conditions of the poor, and since poverty destroys everything that psychologically and physically makes a person whole, it induces impoverished individuals to commit crime. Author Raymond Sturgis has written another masterpiece that will arouse the conscious of America to pay more attention to the poor and homeless people of this great nation. This book is not to criticize or point fingers; however, it mainly corroborates the lives of people in their realistic ways of life, walking aimlessly every day, begging for food and crying because they have no home or decent shelter to protect them from the cold.
The wealthy entitled (tax breaks and perks) claim that everyone has an “equal” chance at success through hard work, self-discipline and taking risks. For those that fall through the cracks, they want to leave it to, “charity.”
Unfortunately, this approach simply makes the rich, richer and the poor, poorer. Until we can come to grips with how to transition people who have lost paying work into new paying work and give free counseling and mental care, if needed, we will not end poverty, but exasperate it. The growing debt among the middle-class is the new poor. Yet most of the middle-class still has some opportunity. The poor, except for a few shining examples, are left with nothing but handouts.
For the reasons I describe in this book, the world-wide suffering, death and extinction of humanity is very likely to occur, unless nonviolent and democratically determined radical and revolutionary personal and societal actions and changes are taken
