"living in cages is a "choice",but only because of their limited circumstances due to low skilled wages being too low and cost of dwelling in this rigged property market system is too high"
Another us researched piece of drivel...
My politics are probably centre left if I could be pigeon holed....what I do believe is that there should be no free lunch. What is wrong with collecting cardboard actually? Seriously, what is actually wrong with it?
"People in other world cities don't do this and are less likely to an abject working poor because there's is social safety net (assuming they are documented persons). HK is work or not having anything to live on (unless you have a benefactor)"
You don't live in the real world. In both the UK and Australia I spent many years working in social housing and social care...over 10 years actually. I have worked with housing associations, district councils, the national probation service, been a member of several think tanks on homelessness, poverty, offending and drug & alcohol/mental health issues in homelessness. What are your credentials? What is your background that you want to lecture me, or call me a right wing prick, or push your nonsense? What have you done for your community? Trust me, I'm not being an asshole...I'm willing to learn....please advise...
