Or how is the average Joe doing?  In America class traitors abound, more common here than apple pie, so how can we know?

Jump to 18 minutes in and the facts start coming out.  Then you might want to start at the beginning. You will learn that 75% of new homeless are first timers in Orlando.  Housing costs have apparently crossed a two Mac-Job limit there.

Or people don't want to work hard enough?

We live in bubbles, oblivious to the misery of others.

If people are working and they are homeless the system is not working.

Last month, the U.S. government released its annual point-in-time count of people experiencing homelessness on a single night this past winter. The latest figures confirm the tragedy we all see in communities across the country: 650,000 people sleeping on the streets or in shelters, the highest figure since the count started in 2007. The government also released data showing that last year, almost 900,000 people fell into homelessness for the first time, a 25 percent increase from the previous year and by far the largest increase ever recorded.

42 mines in comes this analogy:

The appeal of Trump is the appeal of a pole dancer at a strip club.

A partner can nag and nag and nag.  Then a man escapes to a strip club.  The stripper lies and tells him she loves him.  He knows she is lying.  But this is better than the nagging.

Democrats are saying things are great when they are not.  Work harder and get a job.  That amounts to nagging.


Better to be lied to.  At least the stripper will lie to you.  Thus Trump wins again.

He should get a 3rd job.  Then he won't need a home.

Yes, I realized that when I made the post.  With three jobs there is no time to be at home.  But pooping in a plastic bucket and not being able to take a shower has a downside.  Sleeping in a bucket seat sucks, and cars get cold fast.  So I decided not to advocate for homelessness.

Some kind of home is necessary.  Even rabbits can have holes.

And by the three job logic.  If three jobs are not enough.  Five or six should do.

The trick is to make the 3rd job one you can sleep at.  Night security guard at a truck dropyard for instance.  Night janitorial jobs in office buildings also good.  Always a couch in some executive's office to sleep on.

Home health care aid great for sleeping.  You just gotta check on the gomer every couple of hours to see if the diaper needs to be changed.   If they wake up, the call button wakes you.

Shower is solved by joining a gym.  Don't need to shit in a bucket, all your workplaces have bathrooms.

4 or 5 jobs not possible full time.  Not enough hours in the day.
