From: "James Haines" > I wonder if city taxpayers might not benefit more if the town built a daytime shelter with shower and laundry facilities>
There are full time homeless shelters here. I imagine that in Finland they have access to showers and laundry in the shelters too. But most of the bums in the Library are the ones that are still on the streets. Because of their mental illness, many of these people refuse to participate in anything where they have to cooperate with anyone else, even if it is to take a shower or to wash their clothes. These bums go to the library to wash and sleep because it is their way of disrupting the system and continuing to enable their mental illness. ------------------------ Yahoo!
