the bank of america booth, 12.23.24

i try not to think about it, but i feel so bad when i see the homeless, especially around this time of year. we were in a parking lot in worcester talking and across the street was a bank of america booth with an atm in it. it was a standalone enclosed area. someone went in there, laid down, and set up a blanket with their backpack as a pillow. i don’t know how people survive in this weather. it’s too cold and too frigid to not have a home or a place to go.

i feel like we pay enough in tax dollars to do something for the homeless, but maybe the solution isn’t as simple as the problem seems.
