Oh, and there are homeless who do receive a state stipend, it just isn't enough to put a roof over their head.
That isn't a shelter it is a halfway house. A shelter is just that a roof over your head for a night, they will not accept correspondance from anyone. Not saying they don't have the right to vote, but in most states one MUST have a address to sign up TO vote. Your state is doing something MOST states don't do. A stipend isn't going to put food in their bellies either. It's just enough to by cigarettes and booze, to keep people homeless.
I also don't appreciate your statements about AJ, I find it rude and you could learn something if you'd read her posts.
