Easy, I ask. When several give me figures relatively close I pretty much figure what they make. I also managed several carnivals for 16 years. They'd hire on with us as a way to make it to other states for free.
They may not have much dignity but stupid or poor, they are not. |

This is not the 1930s when most homeless and unemployed were rendered so by the dust bowl, the Great Depression resulting after the stock market crash and indeed worldwide economic devastation. Today numerous employment opportunities are available and many jobs paying well remain unfilled. Today's homeless choose not to work. They receive government handouts, including free cells phones, and free medical care compliments of us hard working taxpayers. Almost all but the occasional unfortunate are worthless parasites. They elect to drink, drug and loaf.

2. Some do drugs but the majority do not. Depending on the job, we'd test them. Most would pass. Most don't drink any more than the people in the squares every night. 3. Loafing? They have it down to a science! |

Where I lived in DC there was a story in the Washington Post about a couple that would metro (train) in and panhandle. They made over $150k a year, which was pretty good in the mid-2000s.
This story is fairly recent: https://www.washingtonpost.com/local...7ce_story.html |

Please just speak your mind as you see it. if you curb your wording in fear of hurting someone's feelings then you are not promoting "Your" truth, but someone else's truth.
If I see people begging then I see someone(s)who decided not to work for a living. if I decide they appear to be of a certain nationality(say hispanic or mideastern)then I will say so. if someones feelings are hurt then perhaps they require a reality check as to what constitutes a democratic republic based on the individual giving it their all. |

I don’t give money to panhandlers, as I don’t have the life skills to know who are scammers and who are not. I also don’t have the knowledge to know who is wacko or not.
Just read this the other day. Makes me not want to help except at/for St. Vincent DePaul or food banks. Utah homeless man Eric Jones allegedly slit woman's throat after she let him into her home
