BANDAIDS DON'T FIX BULLET HOLES

A pox on any precinct that has a “Panhandler Patrol” that takes things from the homeless instead of helps them

I have no problem with real panhandlers. My problem is with the ones who do it as a job and rotate spots and kids to go with them with the same people week after week.

I am glad I don't give a gently caress about getting scammed out of pocket change even if they're faking it.

I don't imagine the life of a really successful panhandler scammer is all that glamorous.

Yeah, same. If your life sucks so much that you have to sit on a street corner scamming people for change, then you need that dollar more than I do.

My problem is with our broken society that forces people to stand on the corner in the snow with their children begging for money instead of being able to guarantee the members of our society a roof over their heads and a bowl of oatmeal or something.

Yeah, I get that but it's a hassle when you're getting followed by people asking you for money through your neighborhood on the daily. Please tax me more and get people stable housing and the healthcare/social services they need to not be homeless and have a decent quality of life.

Yes lets give them food and housing so that no one in our society can become so destitute that they can not realistically participate in it

Homelessness is such a gordian knot of everyrhing that is hosed up with American-style capitalism and wraps in basically everything that is poo poo about today. For a country that loves to talk about how much we love Jesus, we sure do treat him like poo poo through the least among us.

It’s because taxes are placing an unjust burden on the highest earners, they’re unable to afford charity. If we reduced taxes on the billionaires they’d be able to help more people

When I was at Wounded Warrior Battalion there was a group of people getting processed out who got to go and visit a distro center and had access to some fast-track career pipelines within amazon. Pretty nice program to help some seriously hurt people get their lives sorted during their transition out, even if it is for Amazon.

So in the amazon logo, the arrow points from a to z, indicating that Amazon carries a wide variety of products ("everything from a to z"). In this picture, the arrow seems to point from m to a...military to amazon, I'm guessing?

That's kinda clever actually, seems entirely possible that they did that on purpose.

I had assumed that Amazon was just shamelessly jumping on the challenge coin bandwagon. It's good to see that they are helping with the transition to civilian life. Even if they are a ghoulish company otherwise.
