Almost homeless

How many people live on the edge? Living the RV life in the winter the Kadizzles see a lot of people squeaking out an existence by living in some type of camping vehicle.  The Republicans want to destroy social security.  Little do they know how many people that will throw into poverty.  A person can live at extremely low cost if they have to by being a full time RV person. There is no property tax, no sewer and water to pay for, no garbage fee, and you are free from so many other things.  Some hard scrabble people move to the Amazon distribution center in Nevada and work like slaves for a few weeks around Christmas.  Most campgrounds rely on the free labor of some old RV people.  In exchange for some lite duties the person gets a place to stay,  maybe electricity,  or propane.   Many of those living the life migrate to the North in the summer.

You can find people in just about every income bracket.  Some are withing inches of abject poverty, others have good pensions, retirement plans or some good source of money.  Likewise you can find people living in tents or half million dollar motor homes.  There are a lot of single people moving about, a lot of divorced, a lot of lonely, and people who just want to escape the rat race.
