Profiles of people living in homeless encampments, rarely what you’d expect

I am from Missouri USA and collecting help is frowned upon due to our Libertarian lean. As far as jobs go, whenever I have a project or a job I short term rent or house share. My reporting is that of actual street boot stompin and witnessing. I got accepted to a housing program but got mugged by a hotel and repeats the trauma cycle of abuse.

I mean that's like a personal issue I would assume being homeless is frowned up as well?

Why? I thought charitable work/donations were a libertarian talking point against social welfare and related programs

I dont really know what "their" talking points are I am just saying what is and isnt culturally accepted round here. I guess being independent and to provide for yourself are big ideals and sometimes these laws cultures and customs prevent that. I prescribe to no political ideology.
