Don't act llke there aren't slums in EU or elsewhere. Some major cities in Europe hide the homeless for the night - great, but doesn't really help them get back to normal life.
There are homeless people sleeping under bridges in Germany too, they're just expelled from the cities. Prague is full of homeless people - I see 5 from my window right now, and there are several slums too. Visit rural Slovakia or Romania and you'll see that the EU is just full of propaganda.
I wouldn't be surprised if the relative number of homeless people was actually larger than in the USA, the EU just doesn't bother to count properly and allocates a very minor amount of money to hide the problem.
- emteycz 5y agoWhy don't the down voters explain what is wrong about my sightings here at home? Or why is the truth about the discussed situation unwelcome here?
- mandelbrotwurst 5y agoYou’re probably being downvoted because of how you started your comment, directing the person above to not “act like” there aren’t slums elsewhere, despite that being not at all relevant to their comment.
- emteycz 5y agoThey are saying in a very sleazily suggestive way it is only the US where the system has failed - that is totally false and you can hear here.
- scotty79 5y agoI guess you missed my point. My point was about selling people heroically dealing with some results of systematic failures as uplifting stories. And that it's something I noticed about US news. Some systems fail everywhere. In some places more than others.
- junipertea 5y agoThere are, they are also not celebrated. I agree with parent poster that it's a systemic failure that people have to literally build slums to live even among all that wealth.
