did you know that if we cut the us military budget in half, we’d have enough money to completely eradicate homelessness in the US while still having well over 200 billion dollars left to improve quality of life for us, & WOULD STILL HAVE THE MOST EXPENSIVE MILITARY IN THE WORLD

@_tventura @CariJayneSwegs That's a false statement money is not the issue with the homeless it is the lack of self-motivated people that do not value hard work & self worth anymore in this country. All anyone needs to do to improve this problem is become a productive member of society.

@_tventura Imagine how much more we could save if we could cut all the fraud, waste, and abuse out of American Healthcare.

@_tventura @MUAdifiziert The thing is the money spent on the military isn’t going to the military but to other government projects. If that much money was spent you’d see better housing, the barracks, better equipment, free uniforms, and so much more. So exactly where is the money going?

@_tventura @hexsharpe Half? Evidence says we could cut it to 1/10 and still have it be equally effective (or non effective as the case may be)

@_tventura The military doesnt even get the money. They dont give shit to their workers or vets either. They give it to politicians and projects that are so unimportant we dont even know about all of them lmao

@_tventura @honduranbebe but this country is evil and they spend so much time being “humanitarians” overseas when really they’re just helping kill innocent children that live in poorer countries. i’m TIRED of living in the United States.

@_tventura @sarahschauer If you want to eliminate homelessness, you must eliminate the distribution and use of illegal drugs, enforce institutionalisation of the mentally ill, and provide jobs for the functionally incompetent. At the very minimum. Homelessness is downstream from culture.

@sunflaw_r @MysteryMuffArt @_tventura @sarahschauer Great. Homeless people who are mentally ill have no need for free housing because they are taking care of themselves just fine. One wonders what the problem is, in that case.

@_tventura @Kehlani They spend so much on military because it's the only "resource" backing the dollar. Without our military the dollar would be worthless.This country is truly broke af when it comes to natural resources that are able to backup our currency. So in true American form they use force.

@literally_dont @DoodooBoy87 @_tventura Wow. that's a really ignorant and dismissive perspective, & terribly hypocritical considering you're top pinned tweet. Some homeless realize the American dream is BS & choose not to chase the unobtainable. many addicts are trying to deal with traumas they never had help with

@clitoriaaaa @LordofGwer @nothannahso @_tventura Lol homeless is not in my bio but kudos for looking at it. No one is acting like they're embarrassed except you. I state that I'm fat not to manage expectations but as a reclaimer of the word. No embarrassment of being fat either because it's just what some people are.
