Twisted to you, perhaps.  It is quite harsh to call civic amenities 
"twisted".  By this logic, how dare you spend money on a movie or a pizza 
when people are homeless!  Nonsense, of course.  I knew that people would 
be making such statements as soon as I found out that corporations were 
being allowed to contribute to such amenities.

Nothing is stopping you two from inviting some of the homeless into your 
own homes.
