>Yes, I too have seen it. This web site makes me extremely uncomfortable, as
does the ongoing but necessary existence of food banks, the increase - yet
always "never enough beds" opening of emergency shelters and the new
"outreach phenomenon" of vans that provide "curbside health care" that also
advertise their corporate benefactors on their vehicles. I revisited the web
site tonight. I clicked, and for a brief second felt great. That scares me.

   Where a great proportion of the people are suffered to languish
        in helpless misery,
   That country must be ill-policed and wretchedly governed:
   A decent provision for the poor is the true test of civilization.

   -- Dr. Samuel Johnson, 1770
