Getting to Know the Homeless

  • and said:

I agree with the defense of good, although I admit I couldn’t exactly understand Lefty’s message. >_<This is a great infographic – I agree! It’s my favorite and the one I went looking for immediately when I found out GOOD graphics were on flickr. I also agree that it would be great to do another graphic that looked at common issues that lead to homelessness – I think the cycle of issues involved in being impoverished is a really important story, since most people simply assume that homeless folks are either lazy or addicted and willfully able to stop if they’d just get some “personal responsibility”. I personally don’t believe it’s that simple, as we’re in a system that does not support people. Even something about the working poor would be great.As a side note, I love that these graphics are online, but this one, even at the highest resolution, I found hard to read.

Outsider Politics

  • and said:

I think this guy is the definition of what our country would consider a radical. I think his ideas are very reasonable, but to say he’s speaking for the majority would imply that the status quo doesn’t exist. But it does, and they are ignorant and scared and trained to be much more concerned with buying more stuff than in fixing a flawed system.
