If we said to community and political leaders that they had a prescribed period of time to get people off the streets and into some kind of housing before facing stiff fines or even imprisonment (perhaps just impeachment?). Sounds crazy, doesn't it? Just about as crazy as threatening homeless people with fines or imprisonment because they can't find a job or a place to sleep. What is it that we think this will accomplish except to further overcrowd our jails with people whose only "crime" is being poor? <BR/><BR/>How cooperative and creative would political leaders become if refusing to help alleviate poverty and homelessness was illegal (sort of like "no poor person left behind")?Dean Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08858336357945986574noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9827454.post-87269802084140231032007-12-05T16:56:00.000-06:002007-12-05T16:56:00.000-06:00instead of creating fear about everything?? are t...instead of creating fear about everything?? are there really leaders out there like that anymore??Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9827454.post-48748565824183830612007-12-05T11:31:00.000-06:002007-12-05T11:31:00.000-06:00There is no fear in love!
