The drug addicted and mentally deficient homeless are lost souls, most of whom will never get their lives together. Being homeless is actually the least of their problems. The rest of the homeless, which happen to be the majority, are not that much different than you and I.

But, you and I have much more pressing concerns. How could you manage to get by if your primary source of income dissappeared? Give that a lot of thought because America is rapidly slipping into the worst depression in our history. A year from now, some of us will also be living in our cars ---assuming we can figure out a way to avoid losing our car as well as our home. I am not saying this as some kind of doomsday prophet. I am just calmly, rationally, drawing a reasonable conclusion based on where we were a year ago and where we are headed today.

The housing industry will continue to collapse. Gas and oil prices will continue to rise. And, more and more large corporations will continue to lay off thousands of people at a time. This is not a prophecy. It is guaranteed because _nothing_ is being done by _anyone_ that has _any_ chance of turning the American economy around.

Clearly, Obama/Hillary/MCain have no clue as to how to fix what is broken.

The federal reserve can not continue to keep bailing out the banks. At some point, USD _will_ collapse. There is no other possible outcome.

There is this young guy who wakes me up every morning by the loud roar of his big *** monster truck. Whenever I see him, it is just him or maybe one other person at most sitting in that big *** truck. And, the truck is always spotless clean --- not a speck of dirt or a dent or scratch anywhere. So, I know he didn't buy that big *** truck to haul stuff for work or to chauffeur around a herd of bebe's kids. It simply astounds me to think about how much money that guy pours into that big *** truck's gas tank every week.

That guy _IS_ America. We are like crack heads --- addicted to a lifestyle that is hopelessly irresponsible and CAN NOT be sustained indefinitely. At some point, the wide gaping mouth of karma WILL be filled.
