Answer to Question 1

Homelessness is a condition in which people do not have regular housing and are forced to sleep in public shelters or other facilities. It is difficult to estimate the number of homeless in the United States or any other urban industrial society. The homeless population is made up of single men, families, mentally ill, drug and alcohol abusers and those who are included in this group because of severe poverty.

Answer to Question 2

Education is the primary route to individual success and upward mobility. Displaced workers are urged to move into other careers through special retaining programs or by returning to school. The benefits of education, however, are related to class position. Those of higher rank gain more benefit with less education because of their social and business networks. In addition, children from working- and lower-class homes are less likely to achieve educationally because they lack the in-home models and pressures to do so.
