[quote=Anonymous]For single people on the streets, the Federal government should start a program modeled on the CCC program of the Depression. Instead of sleeping on the pavement, wandering city streets by day, and breathing exhaust, move them to instead to camps out in the great American outdoors, rebuilding trails and infrastuture in our Nation’s parks and other protected lands. It would provide them with the opportunity to learn skills and a trade, wages, fellowship, three squares a day, medical care and medication. There would be Counselors and clergy to minister to their mental and spiritual needs. And those at the margins of society would become part of doing meaningful snd lasting something for our country. We are still the beneficiaries of the first CCC’s great works. There may be similar service opportunities It probably couldn’t be compulsory like the draft, but once created, it should be very strongly encouraged by local government authorities.[/quote]
