What if the system is poorly designed getting people slipping through the nets? I don't agree being so dismissive and throwing all the blame onto them.

i am not, see my next sentence: "otherwise if they didn't get support then the problem is a failure in the bureaucracy, not a lack of available space or resources."

the point is, what ever the reason for being homeless, it is not because refugees took away resources.

do what the people want them to do instead of doing something else and being shocked people don't like it

but that doesn't work if the people are being misled about the cause of the problems they are facing.

Who says people are being mislead? You? Isn't it how democracy should work? If Mainstream politicians refuse to listen to the people why are they surprised when they elect an autocrat who promises to do what the others don't want to listen to?

people are being misled by the claim that refugees and other immigrants are the cause for their problems. and that stopping refugees and immigrants and sending them back will improve our lives. it won't.

our problems are caused by greed, selfishness and ignorance. we need to learn to care for others if we want to solve our problems. the homeless aren't being helped by sending refugees away. if we want to eliminate homelessness we need to actually investigate and address the causes that make them homeless. we need to treat them with dignity. the same goes for unemployment. "creating more jobs" isn't enough.

education is really the only way out. in our country and anywhere else. education will improve peoples lives and it will stop wars and conflict. and it will help us learn how to solve our problems.
