minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink44•7 months agoSo the homeless should be exploited for illegally low wages (a form of slavery) just like we treat certain immigrants? If your advice to people to help them get out of homelessness is to allow themselves to enter a slave market, you are part of the problem.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink32•7 months agoIf somebody is “legit” willing to work, why are you suggesting slavery is their best option? That’s fucked up and you have a lot of predatory and exploitative beliefs you should unlearn.

minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink20•7 months agoIf you think wage slavery is the solution to homelessness, I strongly urge you to look into sociopathy and maybe go get screened.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink12•6 months agoMy father used to make the same claim as well. My father was a liar though. He never once offered a job to a homeless person. I don’t think you have either, but regardless of that, offering to rent day labor at below market wages does nothing to solve homelessness.
