Reddit reviews Street Paper: A Documentary About America's Top-Selling Homeless Newspaper

Ding ding ding! Yes, it's not most people's idea of a job. I doubt a single one of the people selling it now grew up dreaming of one day selling a homeless newspaper. People that complain about The Contributor usually don't know much about it. We live in a country of vast income inequality. When people complain about this opportunity for homeless people at the bottom of our society to possibly better their circumstances, I always wonder why it offends them so much.

Here's a documentary I made in Nashville about poverty and The Contributor years ago that may shed light on how it works for some.

Of course you don't want anyone in your home. My point was lost I guess, because it sounds ignorant to just randomly blame the homeless.

I'm more of a realist, but hey, I did create a feature documentary about the homeless in Nashville. So maybe I do like rainbows, sunshine, trees, etc. In a sane world that comment would be laughable. Unfortunately, this world is far from sane.
