Our current society does not feel empathy. Empathy is dead. We have homeless on the streets, there are benches being made to turn into spikes at certain times or when the meter runs out. This is unfair treatment to the less advantaged. People walk pass who are asking for money to eat or get a drink of water. Now it is a possibility that they will use it for drugs or alcohol, but most just want a meal. Another issue could be that you do not have any money to give and could be poor yourself. Or you do not carry cash often. Those are two valid reasons to not help them out.

The homeless are treated like they are invisible and crooked people. Most have mental issues that are going untreated because of their situation. Ignoring them, or in some cases, throwing stuff at them does not help them at all. Some people kick and hit homeless people because they find joy in their pain. Being rude does not do anything but make them seem like a disgrace to the human race. Being homeless is a domino effect; they slowly spiral into chaos while they loose everything.

This is a cruel reality for many people around the world that do not have a place to sleep.

Another way cities are trying to hinder the homeless from sleeping is to put arm rests so nobody can lie down.

People today do not feel for other people unless it only concerns themselves. Greed and selfishness affects their lives, and act like they are better than others.Some laugh when others are in pain or put in a bad situation. It can happen to anyone. You could be next. Most people do not think they will not be homeless, or it will never impact them or their famalies. We are all human. We are all brothers and sisters. We must help each other out in the time of need.
