This last line caught my eye.  With businesses wanting to open Sundays and
our social services damn near crippled,  perhaps businesses could recruit
via the various social service agencies.  This would provide those accepting
social assistance with both honest employment and an opportunity to become
productive tax paying members of society while releasing funds for more
housing, et cetera.  Besides I think business is obliged to provide this
type of opportunity it only in self-interest.
