Just what is the difference between a homeless person and a bum? (besides some feel good name change like progressive for communist)
A rose by any other name, eh?
Any woman could tell you she’s dated at least one bum who was not homeless.
There are basically five types of homeless.
Circumstancial homeless- those homeless dut to fire, natural disaster, death of bread winnner, loss of job, can't afford rent, etc. (these people might actually have jobs, cars and places to stay ocassionally)
Mentally Ill homeless- usually those who's support system of family and frieds has aged beyond being able to care for them, died off or has just given up taking care of them.
Substance Abuse homeless- Drunks and druggies
Runaway homeless- Underage who have run away from home.
Lifestyle homeless- those that choose to be homeless (bums)
