No doubt you had a lot in common with the "urban" homeless because so
many of them were starving with their liberal arts degree. ;-)

That still has little to do with the stumble bums that inhabit the
camps in Florida, at least according to the people who study them
here.
They tend to be substance abusers, perhaps registered sex offenders
according to the last round of articles and news shows. Most could be
diagnosed with some kind of mental problem. Of course, if you ask a
psychologist, everyone has some kind of mental problem.


I don't know how many "homeless" people there are now.
There will always be some fitting your description.
It used to be mostly mentally disturbed people and winos.
But widespread, it's an "economic" problem.
More jobs will get rid of much of it.
