Fema Employment

Why are the deprived or what we consider deprived discriminated against for meeting the legal requirements.?

A person is deprived or legally found to be deprived under federal and stat laws for housing, employment, education and benefits. Because of this status they discriminatred against for what most times can not be help such as lossing everything in a fire or flood and being forced to moved into a shelter to being focred into homelessness because the rent is increased and welfare will not pay the increased rent or from false claims causing eviction due to a dispute of services, practices or policies. In education to carry the stigma of an income that meets one level but not another causing placement in a undergraduate program or failure to meet schools loans requirements or having a job that seem to be enough to live off but does not meet the need for lights, gas, electric or food. Finally after all of this cast aside because something is never enough not because the attempt was never made or better but because the system is made that way to fail or fall and give up. This is America?

1. Question is too long
2. No one is forced into any shelter,they don't have to go. To many people want our government to foot the bill for any situation that comes along. That is not the purpose of our government. Americans expect our government to pay the bills for us. Not so. Our government is here to protect our rights,our people and our laws. Why is it people don't turn to there family's for help like in the old days ? That helped keep family's Strong.
3. I was a social worker before I became a stay at home mom and I can see both sides of this argument. If you only knew how many people relied on welfare to foot the bill because they don't want to work- it is a VERY real problem. These are the people who don't WANT to better their lives that are being a drain on society. However... that being said... right before I stopped working to stay home with my family, a big factory that was the source of income for MANY people in my community closed VERY unexpectedly. There was a flood of people who were living just past paycheck to paycheck to make ends meet that no longer had income, insurance- anything at all. It was a very upsetting situation. Unemployment was not enough to help get these people by, and neither was the temporary assistance the government. Many of them had to uproot their children and family and move away, selling their furnishings and/or losing their homes to foreclosure in order to survive. It was heartwrenching, and yes it happens way way way too often. I wish there was a 'forced savings solution'- like when a family moves into a housing authority, etc- part of their rent will be refunded once they move out. Like for instance if they paid 400 a month for low income house/apartment, 75 of that every month was set aside in an account that eventually would be returned to the tenants. I think it would help create better lives.. Wow.. I think I got off track here a little bit... But anyway... I feel ya.
