The latest news circulating around the world and been the subject of discussion in every television shows in America and Canada is the 30 year old man who was kicked out from the house of his parents.
It's hard to believe that the case has ended up inside the court. That living inside the house of his parents without food and laundry became an issue.
HOMELESSNESS is not a laughing matter. It's a huge problem. You'll never know if one day you'll be homeless because of the many disaster and unavoidable circumstances. You'll never know if for many years you are a millionaire then one day you are poorest of the poor. God and Mother Nature have a way of getting back at you. You can laugh and kick these homeless people but who knows maybe in the end the ones you kicked out will be the ones who will accept you in their homes.
Unemployment is such a problem in every city, in every country and too many homeless people are a burden to families, to the community. Homelessness is by far a problem in certain demographic areas in Canada, USA, Philippines and everywhere around the world. With minimum wage how a single person can afford to live in a one bedroom house that is offered for rent for $1,000/month include all the utilities/food/and other basic necessities? Even if you are probably earning $1,500/month that's only for the monthly rent for a house and how you can afford other basic necessities?
In Canada you must have at least two jobs to be able to afford the basic necessities in life. Or if you are single, you must share the house or apartment with another single human being and maybe you can pay the high price of rent/mortgage whatever.
We all thought in Philippines that children in Americans and Canadians homes once they turned 18 years of age they must leave their parents' homes. That's not the case though. In the Philippines, you can leave your parents's home once you got married and the newlyweds should find a home of their own. Basically that's the rule for wealthy families. Or when the couples have pride and too proud enough to leave the nest of their parents. Poor families have to share the house together with their poor children. Conflict triggers economic drama.
Watch the ROSEANNE comedy/drama television and how you can relate to their drama is up to you. It is relatable for you? How about SEINFELD show? How Seinfeld shares the apartment/ fridge/food/drinks/tv to his nerdy friends. How about Big Bang Theory series where all friends gathered together and shared what they can share together. It takes GOOD FRIENDS to share...only if you have GOOD FRIENDS. The benefit of good friends.
Let's be honest here, the America and Canada that you know is different from we all know when we were in Philippines. Their storms and calamities are worst than in the Philippines. They have hurricanes, volcanoes, great flood that lasted for months (houses submerged on dirty water for more than a month to 6 months), and tornadoes? Their tornadoes or twisters are real! Their countries experienced wildfires, sinking holes on the ground, landslides, winter storms, avalanches, etc. They had so many "abandoned cities" because of toxic waste and contaminated water. Yeah, all these stories are told in the television series ABANDONED and NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC. Sometimes you have to watch TV NEWS so that you can be well informed. The worst disasters are in these countries and nothing compared to the disaster in Philippines. Now you wonder why Pres. Trump is very strict in its immigration policy.
