It is even worse today. It costs so much to even hire a person (even if there wage was $0/hour) that you cannot afford to hire charity cases. You cannot allow people to use your vacant building or lot.
To bad a great number of people never learned arithmetic (instead there were hammered with calculus) else everyone would see how bad the minimum wage was.
I used to work security patrols, and we'd charge $5000/month to drive around a factory 3 times a night.
I remember thinking how they'd be better off hiring a homeless guy as a night watchman.
Small utility room with a cot, fridge, TV, bottle of scotch every now and then. He'd be on site 24/7 and would cost a fraction of security patrols.
The union would find out and get the law involved, though.
I am sure I didn't call them "lazy bums" why do you keep calling them that?
Chronically homeless people are mostly mentally ill and/or substance abusers, what is their life expectancy? The life expectancy of a meth addict is 7 years after they start using.
It gets cold here in winter so the homeless population here is fairly small.
If you didn't speak of their determination or motivation or lack thereof when you said homeless people don't want to be security guards, then what did you speak of? Personal experience?

As voluntary as distress and duress are?

Depends on the source of the distress.
If it's coercion, then its involuntary and I have a problem with it.

this guy is beyond repairing. he is trolling my posts now. I like it though. He inspires me to reply to his illness and make a post out of it. The more stupid statists make themselves look, the better for freedom it is:

Of course, they are lazy bums and will "purge" themselves, any day now. What's it been, a few millennia by now?
