The majority of Americans I know have a lot of compassion for the homeless. They’d prefer they be helped, but our gov’t has yet to find a solution.

Of course some people have a negative opinion of the homeless due to negative interactions - being scammed, not really homeless, taking advantage of people.



Does that compassion extend to anything more substantial than "aww, poor them" or donating a few bucks and into sustaining meaningful change in the way we deal with the issue?
