People are dying, hiding on hillsides, in ditches, old warehouses (luxury), anywhere they can find temporary shelter. They (obviously) don't have Net access, are too busy finding food to vote and cease to exist anyway once they lose their IDs along with everything else, and are treated with contempt by some of the more fortunate. We are all here only by the grace of god/creation/sheer luck but that goes 100-fold for the homeless. I am not ranting, I've been there, and if it's already endemic in Calif, US, in fact worldwide, it could happen to anyone, regardless of social standing right now. When are the Thabo Modisanes of this world going to be heard... only when hell becomes home. Too late then. And starvation knows no colour or creed.. how long"); document.write("
try being homeless
"); document.write("for a few days in the jozi winter, let alone weeks, months. No witty net comments, too busy finding food and water with last strength to vote, ID long gone with everything else. If it can happen in California to anyone it can happen to anyone here. Homelessness is skewed by class but happens regardless of colour, creed, whatever. When will the T Modisanes of the world be heard? Maybe when hell becomes home those perverse parties who laugh at the poor will change their tune. Maybe not. We are all here by the grace of creation/god/sheer luck but that goes 100-fold for the homeless. A skilled, hardworking person might face the street sooner than he or she thinks.
