So the homeless should be exploited for illegally low wages (a form of slavery) just like we treat certain immigrants?
If your advice to people to help them get out of homelessness is to allow themselves to enter a slave market, you are part of the problem.
I’m saying, if you’re legit willing to work, the work is there and if you’re homeless, no work should be “beneath you”.
If somebody is “legit” willing to work, why are you suggesting slavery is their best option?
That’s fucked up and you have a lot of predatory and exploitative beliefs you should unlearn.
You’re setting the parameters. Homeless, no shower, dirty clothes, no background check, instant payments…
If that’s your baseline then there’s your baseline job.
