		<description><![CDATA[Congress does NOT care one iota about the homeless problem and the fact, as documented by this article,  said problem is getting worse by the week.

What the main-stream media won&#039;t tell Americans is that there is no intent, NONE, to propose a solution to the problem as, for example FDR did with his new deal.  

What makes my blood boil is that Obama, Congress, and the main-stream-media are ALL working in concert to cover up this inhumane tragedy and to keep the American people thinking-hopeing that maybe, just maybe things will get better.  It&#039;s an enormous sham perpetrated by the Establishment (the 1% as Occupy call them) to cut the other 99% loose from a decent or an even very modest middle-class life.

Zygmunt Bauman, the esteemed British-Polish Sociologist has cogently analysed the logic and reasoning behind this destruction of the American (and British) middle-class in his excellent book Work, Consumerism and the New Poor; basically the Capitalst Accumulators who used the American (and Western) working class to produce their wealth no longer need a modestly well to do middle class beneath them to produce and consume the goods the Capitalist class owns and sells; that class now finds its producers and consumers in East Asia.  

Likewise, the social safety net is being dismantled because the &quot;reserve army of unemployed&quot; and potential workers are no longer needed in the West; they have become what Bauman calls &quot;redundent people&quot;.  Homelessness and/or prison is what many Americans will have to look forward to in their future due to the betrayal of the ruling Capitalst class.]]></description>
