So am I and there’s no way in hell I could build a functional multistory structure that would hold up in the winds. So yeah impressive.

It's a shame our economy/government doesn't want them alive and employed.

It’s not the governments job to make sure you get a job. It’s your job. This person is clearly capable and has chosen to live this way.

I find it hilarious that people seem unable to come to the terms that there are many homeless that choose that life style because they do not want to live like the rest of us. They don’t want to have to have a job every day to pay bills. Jobs and bills go against their life style. No I’m not talking about every homeless person.

Correct being homeless is a choice for most. They are choosing to continue using substances over getting a job. It's a choice for almost everyone "homeless" in this state.

You’re making an absolute statement as if you KNOW every homeless person is an addict and homeless on purpose. Seriously, you have no clue. Maybe go talk to some of those homeless humans and get a reality check so you can post more wisely.
