Homelessness in America and Government Failure.

As the homeless count in America increases, the U.S. government led by President Barack Obama focuses on bombing raids, Iranian propaganda, bank bailouts, and "terrorism".

The Federal Register of January 2010 includes a notice stating that property owned by the U.S. government is unavailable for homeless Americans, even though; the Americans themselves own the property because they are the U.S. government. It seems that these first decades of the new century will be filled with America rediscovering all the problems that plagued it during the last century. The first few decades of the last century saw joblessness, depression, and homelessness as America became bankrupt by the rich and wealthy elite who controlled the banking system. This new century shows the same systemic problems, but with an even greater magnitude jobless, homeless, and depression wave to hit than the prior century due to the increase in population and overall lack of government capability to handle such problems.

It would seem that America concentrates more on what it's good at-War! Bombing raids of Yemen and Pakistan find the daily papers with first denial then acceptance by the Whitehouse. The homeless walk by paperboxes and read the daily headlines. These daily headlines also include the unrest of Iranians rioting in the streets of Iran. The Obama Administration made sure to include $35 million in the Defense Bill 2010 for a multi-media blitz of the Iranian population urging them to continue their unrest and reach for democracy because after all that is what the jobless, homeless, hungry Americans have back in the good ole USA. The Obama Administration didn't just spend it's borrowed money on the defense of America, it also spent hundreds of billions of dollars on bailing out the banks, who stole the homes of many Americans then paid themselves huge bonuses in celebration of good business practices. The wars in Iraq and Afghanistan still rage on as the mighty U.S. military machine helps the people of these great nations become more Americanized, and to help achieve this, private military companies have been given billions of U.S. dollars to train the Iraqis and Afghanis in the art of defense and policing. All of this under the name of combating terrorism.

When homeless Americans scrounge through garbage cans for their next meal, they can be gratified that the great U.S. government is thinking about their safety and security. Never mind that the Stewart B McKinney Homeless Assistance Act of 1987 was passed to help homeless Americans, because the Department of Housing and Urban Development has deemed that their is no federal property available for living on. What with the millions of acreage owned and possessed by the federal government, not even 1 acre is deemed suitable for habitation by the federal government.

Maybe it is time to let the people decide. Maybe it is time for the people to stop asking and start taking their land back. The banks have taken their homes and were rewarded by a federal government who has no clue about American domestic policy. A federal government that is so focused on learniong what its foreign policy ought to be.

I suggest the government put down its guns and grab a hammer and a shovel cause we got work to do.
