Welcome to Mr. Turk's 11th grade Civics blog page. I set this site up for our class so that we can communicate with each other. I may post homework assignments or ask questions for you to comment on right here, online. Parents can also log on to check what we are discussing in class and join in. Hopefully, this will enable us to dwell deeper into our studies and become closer as classmates.

Being homeless has became a bigger problem over the years. when you drive or walk down the street you should not have to see people laying around or asking for money because it only make us look really bad. and the number of homeless people will keep growing unless our government do something about it.ALL together our community looks bad and we need to fix it, not just to make the community look better but to help those homeless people out because they need help more then anyone else.

Homeless is a difficult problem because we have more people on the streets begging and we should be able to work and get what we need. It is also difficult because some people want to help people but don't have the money or time. And because people are just so selfish.

I think that homelessness is actually a big problem in the U.S. that could be fixed .. with all the money that is spent in other countries and at war why not spend it on people that actually need it...

HOMELESSNESS IS A BAD SITUATION B/C PEOPLE DONT HAVE ANYWHERE TO LIVE AND THE GET EXPOSED TO DIFFERENT DISEASES B/C THE CANT SHOWER ON A DAILY BASIS AND THEY HAVE TO SLEEP ON THE STREETS WHICH IS VERY UPSETTING.
10:53 AM
they would help the homeless get their own job and place so they wont be homeless any more.
10:55 AM
to me homeless people are lazy people who don't want to try there hardest to get a job. It makes are community look bad when you go downtown and all you see is people begging for money and sleepin on the ground.
10:55 AM
organization could provide housing for them and help them 2 find a job 2 help them get back on their feet.
10:59 AM
i think that if they show the homeless that they are there for them and are trying to help waisting money on stupid things like sending our troops to be police oversees and try to solve the problems right here at home then may be we ould not have such a high poverty rate.

THE HOMELESS SITUATION IS A BIG PROBLEM RIGT NOW BECAUSE, THE COST OF LIVING HAS WENT UP, AND THAT MAKE IT HARD FOR PEOPLE TO SURVIVE, AND WITHOUT THEIR BEING ALOT OF JOBS OUT THER FOR PEOPLE WHO DIDN'T FINISH SCHOOL TAHT MAKES IT EVE WORST,SO IF THE GOVERNMENT MAKE JOBS LESS PEOPLE WOULD BE HOMELESS POINT BLANK.
11:00 AM
The problem they need to get off there a** and get a d***JOB
11:02 AM
the reasons i think is because the goverment would rather spent there money on building jails rather then building homeless shelters to help them get on there feet with them havinge no where to go makes them want to steal which ends them up in one of the many jails they built instead of it being a homeless shelter to keep them from stealing
11:03 AM

12:19 PM

homelessness is a difficult problem because it sends out a bad message to the world i mean this is supposed to be the land of oportunity and yet we see people who dont take advantage of that
12:33 PM
Homeless as what i feel is the biggest problem in the USA because it makes us look bad we dont do anything to help the homeless and as what i feel we should get them back on there feet by giving them a opportunity by giving some type of job to earn some cash and give them food start building homeless homes so we can at least get them off the street
12:37 PM

12:41 PM
The government can use tax dollars to help the less fortunate.
