Most religions are a set of stories compiled out of much older stories and knowledge. That's why the Bible and Quran constantly contradict themselves by preaching peace and brotherly love in one chapter and then violent extermination of enemies in the next.

There's a lot of practical knowledge contaminated by moralizing (aka brainwashing) and it's more useful to read them like an encoded version of The Art of War rather than the chaotic scrawl of an insane divinity. One main focus of both texts is treatment of the poor, because they both realize both short term and long term social stability depend on an adequate safety net and basic human rights.

Even Hawaii has the code of the Law of Splintered Paddle, which Kamehameha pieced together from previous edicts and then used to boost his own legend. At the time it came out with it he was facing a crisis of legitimacy, much like the State of Hawaii is now, and he realized that he must protect the rights of the poor and destitute in order to gain popular support.

A government that authorizes homeless sweeps while stealing public money and resources through graft won't be around much longer. It will probably take a few pension funds drying up to kick off the real fireworks, because only then will the protected classes start to realize we share a common destiny with those on the street.

If they would hurry up and finish the rail, here will be covered stations with clean restrooms and air conditioned trains for the homeless to use....
The reasonable man adapts himself to the world;
the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself.
Therefore, all progress depends on the unreasonable man.

There was a whacked homeless guy in Kaneohe probably 10 or 15 years ago that would go around (often on a bicycle) with a Samurai sword on his back.  One day I was at a Mexican restaurant and he came in and started to mess with his sword.  Scary.
