If you give money to these folks, you are enabling there behavior. Stop doing it and they will go away to some other corner where there are more suckers. These people make more money doing this then they would working. That is why they do it. And yes I know, some are really in need and do this to survive. And that is the sad part. Because so many have decided this is an easy way to make a living, others suffer. It's like those that take as many government handouts as they can find even though they really don't need them. Then those that really do don't get the help they need. The emergency room example used above, because it is so abused by those taking advantage of the system, those that need help in an emergency struggle to get the help they need.

So just continue to give the handouts to these people and the next time you drive by there, there will be more of them. Why not? It works.
