The government isn’t responsible for anyone. Each individual is response for themselves. The government can eat TRASH.

They need to quit enabling homelessness. It has just become another welfare program.

Per Columbia City Council meeting to discuss a report that outlines efforts to end homelessness, Feb 06, 2022 on KMIZ news.

The City has increased funding for homeless from $62,200 in 2016 to $302,346 in 2022, by reducing funding to children, youth, and family services, and mental health services. Way to go Columbia.

Larry Sabulsky

I think the community needs to step up and help the homeless. When are all of you going to realize the Government is not going to fix your/our problems. They have created the majority of the problems we face today.

Agenda narratives always get the right amount of attention one way or another.

We must all do our part and wear masks, only for two weeks, to flatten curve. Also, stand at least 7 feet away from each other at all times (6 feet for COVID was made up with no science so 7 feet is the new distance). Once big pharma has a vax, it will be mandatory to go to grocery store, etc.
