Thread: American family forced to live in a tent....

While illegal aliens receive mortgages, free housing assistance, free medical care, and demand even more from our society....take a look at this young, American family forced to live in a TENT with their 3 year old...the father works in construction ....I bet alongside many illegals with their new trucks, and their apartments.....

RAGE doesn't descrilbe what I feel whe I think of what the illegals are getting comes to mind. But there's one thing to remember. In a system of democracy and capitalism, this family's situation is a prime example of how people can be left behind who are not that fortunate. This has happened in the past way before the MEXICAN invasion, and like Sapper says, it won't be the last time either. We all need to remember that any of us could end up like this, no matter how much you may have saved with this worthless paper fiat currency system and especially if you keep it all in a bank.

This young man is a victim of the job-robbing invasion and the housing slump that was organized by the villans and traitors who are running this country and who are far less human than he is. He should qualify for vocational rehabilitation and his wife may as well. This is definately a valid socail service case. They're not sitting at what is called home for them, waiting for a handout. This couple is doing what they must to get by and they have my greatest respect. May God Bless them.

George Bush, you're a pathetic piece of work. This man would be working today if your traitorous, orchestrated invasion had not caused the job loss and the financial travesty for your fellow countrymen that your domestic policies have created. A president should know and do better you idiot! By treating your fellow countrymen like this, do you actually expect our alligence? You're a traitor, George and far more stupid than a jackass. How in the heck can you live with yourself? I hope you wallow in your indulgence when you are face to face with your maker.

It's not OK for people of destitude to ask for handouts, according to some conservatives in this country, but now it's OK for rich bankers to ask. This is a situation where trickle down econmics should be abandoned and the trickle up effect should be employed.

NON-immigrants and illegals
are job destroyers!
DEPORT NOW!
Hi Rockfish,

There are a lot of cases of American info-tech workers rendered homeless after training their Non-immigrant Hindu replacements from Bangalore, India.

"Your FIRED, now train your replacement!"

KNOWLEDGE TRANSFER
Train your [NON-immigrant]Tata/Infosys/Wiprospectramind replacement or else!
-- Bad performance appraisal
-- No severence pay
-- No unemployment benefits

Boycott their employers:

Boy Cotto, you hit the nail on the head with that one! Good to hear from you again.

I DONT KNOW IF THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON IN THE REST OF THE COUNTRY...BUT HOMELESSNESS....EVEN FAMILIES...THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING IN SAN FRANCISCO FOR YEARS. ONE YEAR HOMELESS FAMILIES CAMPED IN FRONT OF CITY HALL TO TRY TO BRING ATTENTION TO THEIR PLIGHT. TO NO AVAIL. THEY WERE IGNORED. I REALLY THINK THIS COUNTRY HAS BEEN IN A DEPRESSION FOR YEARS, BUT THEY JUST KEEP PLAYING WITH WORDS AND NUMBERS TO MAKE US THINK THE COUNTRY IS NOT WHERE IT IS.

Time to do more for homelessThe Olympian • Published September 29, 2008

One week ago, Camp Quixote, Olympia's tent city, moved from The United Churches to St. John Episcopal Church on Capitol Way. It was the ninth move of the homeless camp in the past 20 months.

It's time to start a community discussion about finding a permanent site.
It was February 2007 when Olympia Unitarian Universalist Church on the west side reached out to a group of homeless individuals and invited them to set up a temporary camp on church property. The controversial encampment prompted a new ordinance in Olympia setting rules for tent villages.

For example, residents must be notified when Camp Quixote is moving to their neighborhood and a community meeting must take place. The law governs the length of stay, sanitation and other aspects of operating an around-the-clock encampment for homeless men and women.

"It's really become part of the community. And that's wonderful," said Mindy Chambers, a camp volunteer from St. John's.

With the downturn in the economy, tent cities are cropping up across the United States. A recent Associated Press story said people who have lost their jobs in the ailing economy and others who have lost their home in the mortgage meltdown are finding themselves homeless and destitute.

"From Seattle to Athens, Ga., homeless advocacy groups and city agencies are reporting the most- visible rise in homeless encampments in a generation," AP reporter Evelyn Nieves wrote. "Nearly 61 percent of local and state homeless coalitions say they've experienced a rise in homelessness since the foreclosure crisis began in 2007, according to a report by the National Coalition for the Homeless. The group says the problem has worsened since the report's release in April, with foreclosures mounting, gasoline and food prices rising, and the job market tightening."

"It's clear that poverty and homelessness have increased," said Michael Stoops, acting executive director of the coalition. "The economy is in chaos, we're in an unofficial recession, and Americans are worried, from the homeless to the middle class, about their future."

Here in Thurston County, Camp Quixote has moved roughly every 90 days among five Olympia churches: Olympia Unitarian Universalist Congregation, The United Churches, First United Methodist Church, St. John's Episcopal Church and First Christian Church.
The Tumwater City Council has adopted Olympia's tent city law, but no Tumwater churches have stepped forward to host Camp Quixote. It's time.

The city of Lacey adopted an unworkable tent city ordinance, requiring the church to house the homeless indoors. Many pastors have said their church facilities are simply incapable of hosting a tent city under the city's oppressive ordinance. The Lacey City Council needs to revisit its tent city law and move to the Olympia/Tumwater model.
It's time.

The Thurston County Commission has yet to adopt a tent city ordinance.
It's time.

As Chambers said, "The need for shelter for women and children in this community is crushing. And it's only going to get worse."

That's why it's time for the community to begin the discussion about having a more permanent option for tent cities. The fact that Camp Quixote has been forced to pull up stakes every 90 days is disruptive for the 28 homeless individuals and for the communities that are partnering with them.

There is no doubt that Camp Quixote has been a success. It has the full support of the Olympia Police Department. The time is right to take the next step and find a permanent location for the camp.
