Is it a Boy Scout Jamboree or a lifestyle choice?

One day, but not today, some brave social worker will pronounce the obvious but forbidden truth: When homelessness is facilitated by a government under the rubric of compassionate accommodation, you will get a lot of people opting for homelessness. Of course, when compassion becomes the responsibility of government, that leaves more time for the beach.

The poor in body and the poor in spirit will always be with us. And there are those who are working hard to make sure that this arrangement reamins ever so.

Put up a sign that says "Campground" and bingo, no more homeless for people to see.
