After work, I wanted to go home, but I’m not allowed to travel between 4.00 and 6.30 pm. I was sitting in a draughty station, drawing with those 3 pencils I had with me. I’m not a fan of coloured pencils or draughty places. I’m pretty sure they designed those stations that way to keep homeless out.

I saw a commentary how China keeps the homeless off the street. Social workers work fast to place them in shelters. How about those in your country?

A part of our homeless like to stay that way they receive a monthly income and there are shelters but they prefer to drink it all.

An other part are those with jobs and families kicked out on the streets simply because all the new built homes are for the fake refugees breaking down society.

I do not what you mean by state...the state has no money. Those few, and this percentage still working and paying sky high taxes about literally everything, pay the villa for everyone so you can guess what will happen if everyone is jobless simply because they are too lazy to work ..

Digital euro with restrictions on what to spend it and if not at the end of the month they take it away from you, no savings, no debts except for being a slave if the state and it's property. This is the price we all pay. By the way there are plenty of jobs just no people willing to work. I believe generation X is the last generation still working their arses off and a few of the next generation being drilled by their parents.

People these days have different mindset when it comes to work. Quite entitled and really pissed me off. One of them said this, I will have to see how much increment the company will give me before I put in the effort. Damn...
Gone were the days where we tried to pick up more skill/knowledge in case the company fire us for not being useful enough.

What's with the fake refugees issue there? We have refugees' issues too. They have been using social media and all to smear the locals and even threatening them. Like beheading, death threats and all. And all the bad behaviour and crimes.

If it were me I wouldn't hire such people. Work is more than a salary. People like these cannot be trusted and have no work attitude.
I for me also work for free. Why? To give a hand and to meet people and make connections and trust me I am way better employee than getting paid.

If it comes to fake refugees, they are not refugees and they behave here exactly the same as with you. Interesting enough they wouldn't do that at home.

I feel that we have to mind our manners no matter where we are. Not much can be used as excuse for bad behavior. But they did it anyway. Behavior aside, there are certainly some that fake it for some other issues.

You are right about those 'workers' can't be trusted. I had horrible experiences with them. I may not work for free but I don't mind starting on the lowest salary if I have to prove myself to the employer.

If we are the only ones always monding our manners we will be crushed which is what happens right now...

The invasion of fakers kicking citizens, slicing throats of people, stabbing children and (gang) raping girls and women in the open or for weeks is a good example there's no peace, people aren't equal and cannot be treated the same. More and more citizens stand up and fight back simply because police, justice and government let them down.

That may be the case , homeless people look to settle anywhere. Unfortunately, they are often not very disciplined.... The investment they make is too large, so they must think about every detail.

Many slept at Utrecht Central Station which also was a shopping centre. The rebuilt it mainly to keep the homeless away. It changed in a draughty, customer unfriendly, a bit asocial station you rather avoid. During winters it is hard to change platforms because of the icy wind. For sure this station was the start.

They achieve their goal, which is to prevent these people from staying there. The unfortunate thing is that homeless people sometimes don't behave well, even trying to attack others.
