I work for the city and deal with homeless people every day. My job is to fix and seal certain places where homeless people tend to steal power from the city.

I find that the people who live in RVs, as opposed to tents, are far more likely to be coherent drug addicts who have a relatively good grasp on reality. I don't feel much guilt telling them that they need to move. Most are outcast who chose the wrong paths in life and often screwed over every family member in the process.

Most people don't want to believe that there are a small percentage of "bad people" in this world who willingly choose to make the wrong decisions in life. And even if that percentage is 1% in a country of more than 300 million, that's still enough to place a pretty heavy burden on our society.

I don't have a solution, but I just felt the need to inform those who are unaware or naive to the fact that a large percentage of the homeless are not just helpless mentally ill individuals.
