Default Re: Panhandlers

With as many safety nets and opportunities as there are, homelessness in today's world is a choice. One might not "choose" homelessness, but one does choose not to go for that last fast food job and an efficiency apartment before they lose everything.. they choose to do drugs, alcohol that they cannot afford.

Basically, I figure I owe them nothing, there's always the Jesus House. If someone really wants it, I think they can get off the streets.
