Comment on "Homeless discover home comforts in restaurants" (June 2, China Daily)

I was surprised to read the report and know that the living standard of the poor is so bad. Even ordinary people have the right to live a normal life. But they don't even have a place to rest and sleep. I appeal to the authorities to take immediate measures to improve migrant workers' life.

In our country, the gap between the rich and the poor is very wide. It's the government's responsibility to improve poor people's life and get them jobs, and check the skyrocketing housing prices.
