4. This is a sign of a prosperous & robust economy!
You liberals are so negative! Can't you see that this man has made a free CHOICE to make his home out of doors? Why would you impose your narrow idea of how he "should" be living?

Instead of trying to force people into pigeon holes where they don't want to be, you liberals should allow the FREE MARKET to determine where & how people find their place in society.

YOU PEOPLE ARE SUCH HATERS!

5. the responsibility for this goes directly to bush*
and bush* proposed CUTS in Veterans Benefits and other social programs will assure that this gets much worse, as more and more of OUR Veterans return from bush* WARS.....

6. I don't care
I still live in my McMansion and drive my huge SUV; this doesn't affect me.
