What about homlessness in the USA,does anyone care about that?

Yes, I care. Very much so. But don't know what to do about it. It's definitely something our government should be facing. \n\nNorman Bates response sickens me, does he realize that many people who are homeless are homeless simply because they may have gotten injured or become sick and missed a pay and couldn't afford their rent. It's really THAT simple.\n\nSoooo many people are living below poverty level (what the govt has determined for us to be the poverty level). You wouldn't believe the people who are trying to survive. I watched a show on Oprah about this, EMTs, Phlebotomists, occupations that you would think would provide a pretty good living, don't. \n\nSome of our homeless are even Vietman vets. SICKENING and the excuse you get is, well they're crazy...or they're addicts. Well our war is what got them that way, we should be doing something about it.\n\nI will say, that I'm sure that there are people who have chosen, for whatever reason, to live that way..but not all of them.\n\nAbsolutely unfuriates me that our country is so ready to go fix the problems in another country and turns it's back on our own. :(

Not everything that happens in the freaking world has to be significant to America!!  This holiday is not significant to Americans at all.  Thanks for asking.

Not really. The world is full of interesting countries, not just the US. Even when I lived in the US, I felt unique because coming from another country I have a different perspective to offer to the Americans.

You are right and wrong with this question.  \n\nI believe that MOST Americans care, they just have place their personal life ahead of the news.  They are bombarded on a daily basis about people getting killed in Iraq and Afganistan, and they have learned to tune it out.  \n\nSad, but true.

The USA is a wonderful place for many but not all. As for the "best" place there are many other places that are good too.

Yes,  We as Americans should be very concerned about world opinion.  My girlfriend went on a vacation to Australia not long after we met.  She noticed a little hostility from some of the people from other countries that were in their group.  These ultra conservative "cowboy" extremest are giving us a very bad image around the world.  I stumbled across a website for a German band .........  I think it was Ram-stein but I'm not sure.  I was shocked and appalled at all the anti U.S. statements. \n      I once got into a discussion at a bar with a girl from Czechoslovakia she told me that Americans in general were uninformed and often deceived by our media.   We are the most powerful country in the world right now our problems are the worlds problems and visa verse.  We as Americans have a responsibility to know whats going on in the world (not just what FOX news tells us) and act accordingly.

no, I don't.  because people in poorer countries don't hear or see anything about the common Joe or Jane.  all they hear is what's in the news, "US bombs this"..."US barring trade with...".  Most of the world hears what the president and his cronies are up to...which is what most of us want.  we are poorly misrepresented actually.

You're right, to Americans if it isn't about America they really dont care. Single mindedness is what it's called. They are taught virtually nothing about the rest of the world at school, so I guess that is where it starts.
