In all seriousness do you have any better ideas?

That’s why I asked the question. We don’t have all the answers right now so the subject is up for debate and will be for a while.

What has your committee achieved since it was created?

Have you ever volunteered for your city’s homeless coalition or outreach programs? What about a soup kitchen or a cold weather emergency housing ? What about food pantry’s ? Dental care service ?medical care service ? Do any of these programs sound like something you would volunteer your time to ? Are you comfortable washing homeless peoples cloths and folding them up and handing them back to them , and then the next day wash their bedding ? There’s more. Are you interested in volunteering for any of these ?

Yes, I've volunteered at the food pantry. Now tell me what exactly your committee has done besides waste taxpayer dollars?

Explain to me how tax payer dollars are wasted with homeless centers ? I’d really love to hear your expertise on the subject.

It’s not “my committee “. I don’t work there as my job. Every single thing I listed on the previous response is all volunteer and donation based for the most part but there are people in these organizations who do work at these centers around the nation. That’s what they do. The stuff I listed is just part of it. I’m not sure you’re grasping this.

Enjoy your evening. I’m checking out on this thread. I think my teenagers have a better understanding of this. Heck. I think my cat may too.
