House the Homeless in Vacant and Abandoned Buildings
We, the undersigned citizens of the United States of America, Respectfully request your attention in paying a debt to humanity.
It's well known to anyone that has lived in a large city in the last thirty years that the number of homeless people is constantly increasing. Due to the severe economic downturns, the habit of large corporations of moving their operations outside the country to find cheap labor, and other financial hardships hundreds and even thousands of people have become homeless here in the USA.
As anyone that lives in a large city can verify, there are, in most of the large cities in the USA a variety of vacant and abandoned houses, factories, and warehouses that are serving no purpose and sitting empty. There is no reason that these vacant buildings could not be put to use housing the multitude of homeless Men, Women, and Children that are in danger of death by exposure every winter here in one of the richest, most enlightened countries in the world.
We, the people of the United States hereby ask that the governing officials of the United States utilize Tax dollars that would be spent on less needed projects to purchase, and use these abandoned warehouses, and other large buildings to create havens of shelter and life to protect the lives of these people that have been victims of financial misfortune, and allow them the chance to begin to build their lives again.

Why is this important?
Huge number of homeless people die of exposure every winter in the cities in the north part of the country. In many of the cities, such as Detroit, New York, etc. there are hundreds of vacant and abandoned houses, factories, or warehouses. that could be used to house them, and protect their lives.
This petition is to ask our federal government to step in and save the lives of hundreds or even thousands of homeless men, women, and children by purchasing these buildings and making them into viable shelters for these forgotten citizens of the United States that have been victims of the economic catastrophies brought on by the economic collapse in this country.
