Working in Downtown, I can't help but notice the growing Homelessness problem in Vancouver. They are not all drug population. Hobos from around the realm of Canada flocks to downtown Vancouver, the warmest city in our nation. Posting in a Chinese-Conservative forum, I expect most of you to bash the population being lazy. Yet, I want to see your view's on this.
I noticed my white co-workers at LD, they continue to glorify the Homeless people. They see them as Neo-Hippies, former rebels from the Hippie movement. This situation amuses me because I was raised in the Westside of Vancouver, I have never dealt with people living in the Bohemian livestyle. As many of you know, Hitler is one of those Bohemians living in proverty because his reign.
Anyways, It's sad when I go on a cruise at night, I go from SW Marine Drive such posh neighborhood down to the slums of Hastings. How can Heaven and Hell be so closed together?
In Canada, Homelessness is a very acceptable culture, we are a socialist country after all. Homeless people are beneficial to environmentalism, they forage for left-over foods, recycle our pop cans, wash our windshields. In closed society such as America, China or even Hong Kong, Its not okay to be homeless, you gotta have a job, gotta have a family, gotta be rich. Sticking to conformity without the lack of diversity, the people in power are living in fear of the ill-normalcy. Normal=Docile, easy to manipulate. I hate Big government, stop telling us how to live.
