When you think about it, our real problems are colleges and universities. They make their classes so overpriced so that the poor can't afford it. It is why people born poor stay poor. And as the housing prices increase, the university prices stay the same.

My mum was awesome bless her. Dad cheated on her, they divorced, then her mum passed away and I was awful as a child. Still she traveled 100 miles everyday and got a degree in social care and taught Piano lessons in the evenings to give us more money, they stayed up all night writing her essays for university, and got the best marks in the class despite all the stress in her life. I made her life hard and so did my brother and dad. She was a super woman. I love you mum and I miss you very much

Why don't the shops give food they don't sell to the people that need it. and clothes I think if some goverment worker made a law that nothing useable can be thrown away it would make our country use the wasted products useable even like charity shops people could go to a place where they can purchase beds blankets ect for free .

Anyone who wants to work but cannot due to illness, should be helped until they get better. Anyone who doesn't want to work, should not. It's that simple.
