Except you're not really homeless when you're, as Reagan said, "homeless 
by choice."

Orwell's mum n dad had a pretty nice place he could run back to any time 
he wanted when the going actually got tough - which is exactly what he did.

Guess this is a "lower-middle class home", huh? Where did the 
middle-middle class at the time live...Buckingham Palace?

I know the type, dude. Boston is full of similar bohemian 20-somethings 
who sing the praises of socialism and like to play homeless on the 
weekend, begging for change on the street in sneakers that cost more 
than my entire footwear collection. Then hit up Mom when they inevitably 
run out of cash.

They'll swing Conservative on a dime the minute some thug pulls a knife 
on them. Sad, but unfortunately that's the sort of thing that inevitably 
happens when one tries to roll in a world where you don't belong.
