Here in the “Land of the Free”

The UN Human Rights Committee has harshly condemned the U.S. for its treatment of the homeless, calling it “cruel, inhuman and degrading treatment” that violates international human rights treaty obligations.”

Here in the “Land of the Free”, the homeless are routinely fined for sleeping, sitting, or standing too long in one spot, or for covering themselves with blankets.  They can be arrested just for being homeless, and in some instances, have been killed.

In addition, many cities now have ordinances making it illegal to feed or give money to the homeless. Yes, not only being poor, but also helping the poor is now a crime in the richest country in the world.
United States Is Cruel, Inhuman and Degrading to Poor, UN Report Charges.

Government Alone Can't Take Care Of Our Veterans

"One organization or one government can't support the entire veteran population in the way that they need — not after over a dozen years of war with thousands of military families sacrificing,"

"But if more people pull together and take a more active approach, we'll get a lot more done."

"We have to change our thinking,"

"We can't expect our government to be the whole part and parcel of being the caretaker of men and women in the military."

Supporting the troops is not a political position, but a community responsibility. It comes down to awareness. Because less than one percent of the American population serves in the military, the majority of the country isn't attuned to veterans' everyday needs."That's a staggering statistic when you think that less than two million people defend over 300 million people,"

"So naturally there's going to be a massive part of the population that's going to have no clue as to what military service is about and what the families go through... The military serves in war, and you go to the mall."

Hundreds of non-governmental agencies provide various veterans services and all can use contributions of time, money or goods.I advocates for compulsory military or Peace Corps service for young people as a means of raising awareness of veterans' contributions."If you do that, in less than 10 years, you've created a whole generation of Americans who've had a shared experience of contributing to this country,"

While it is acknowledges the approach might be radical, the result would be a greater understanding of the sacrifices made by service members and their families. But it doesn't have to be so extreme. Just thinking about making a gesture of thanks is a good first step,
