Gary, you keep saying the young people you call "travelers" are living the way they do by choice, but you've presented no evidence to support that, nor has anyone else. You simply assume it's true, because you want it to be. I'm struck by the fact that no one has taken the time to get to know these kids, or asked them what their stories are. I think they're just poor kids, castouts from society, whether they're traveling or not. The traveling may be a choice but the poverty is not. I don't think they're different in any important way from the homeless kids who stay here year round. Here is a link to a short video about them:

Making the same argument over and over, while making no effort to find out the reality and offering no evidence to back up your argument, seems ignorant to me. Most of the people commenting here, and writing letters about the homeless, don't know anything.
