I wonder
the young without skill or talent will have no choice but to go homeless or to
be forced to work to death with the enticing carrot of full-time worker dangled
in front of their eyes.
I want
the young to think that “there is nothing in a city.”
Of
course, however, a city is full of falsehood, deceit, fraud, exploitation,
hypocrisy and fabrication. If you live
by deceiving others and lying to yourself, a city is very convenient. This is because only such types of people get
together there.
However,
if you really want to live seriously, I would advise you to live in an
environment with as much nature as possible.
Try to study about PROUT (Progressive Utilization Theory). You will find out that the environment with
nature can make people and nature live affluently. You’d better not aim at achieving success in
life. To chase after your future dream
is an action that detaches you from nature you are enjoying. I feel there are many people on Earth who
seem to be reprobated by deities.
To tell
the truth, however, I think it is humans that abandon nature and deities.

[Society] An Increase In Number Of Younger Generation Of The Homeless - Difficult To Recognize Them By
Appearance Because They Are Well-Dressed
--------------------
An Increasing
Trend In Number Of Younger Generation of Homeless
News
coverage by NHK has revealed that the number of people in their thirties or
younger who sought for help from facilities across the country which provide
support to so-called homeless people has exceeded 30 percent for the first time
in last fiscal year.
Experts point out that there is an increasing trend in the number of
young homeless people
due to lack of access to support by the administrative organ.
With the
enforcement of law to help homeless people become financially independent in 2002, Independent
Living Support Centers for street people or so-called homeless people have been
established in ten cities including Tokyo, Osaka and Nagoya. NHK’s news coverage on the Centers across the
countries has revealed that 4,354 homeless people sought for support in last
fiscal year and 1,421 of them, three more than in the previous year, were in
their thirties or younger, who accounted for 33 percent of the total.
People in their thirties or younger accounted for 13 percent
in the fiscal year of 2002, but the number has increased year after year and
finally exceeded 30 percent for the first time.
According to Independent Living Support Centers, the number
of old homeless people living on streets or in parks has decreased due to
support provided by administrative organs, while the
number of young homeless people has been on the rise. However, the exact number cannot be grasped
by public administration because they often live on streets or wander about Internet
cafes or 24-hour eating places.
Professor Michiko Miyamoto at the Open University of Japan,
who is well-informed about the poverty problems of youth, points out: “The
reality of an increase in young homeless people has been backed up by figures
for the first time. It is difficult to recognize
young homeless people by appearance because they are well-dressed. Only a small number of people visit a support
center. If proper
support for the younger generation is not provided, their poverty will continue
over a long period of time. It is
necessary to immediately consider measures.”

There are the working poor,
though not homeless, who sleep out at parks to save car fare.
They said that they go home
only weekend.

Family restaurants and
MacDonald’s used to be open 24 hours.
Recently many of them are closed at 5 a.m. once or they provide only
take-out service at midnight.

So, come to an Internet
café in the neighborhood.
You will see really a lot
of refugees!
They are young and old
tramps.
I think there are many
refugees at night wherever you may go.
