He doesn't know how to manage money, can't hold a job because he hates it when people tell him what to do. In other words, there are a lot folks out there who just have issues and don't know how to deal with them, or don't have the skills or mentality to hold down a job in this society.Originally Posted by IchopSamples

and another instance i was about to leave and this lady asked me for some change, and i gave her about 45 cents. random acts of kindness is what i live by. i only hope when i give them money that they are buying something thats going to benefit them
one more thing, i like how the majority of you is saying "they should get a job!"..is that really good logic? isnt it hard enough for someone that lives in a home to get a job and you telling these homeless people to get one? who in this thread can make sense?..think before you type a response
Thats cool my dude. Eventhough you give them money, they're gunna spend it within 30 seconds. Thats not gunna help out there situation. How can a dollar or two help them out?? What if you run into the same bum that you gave money to the other day, are you gunna hook him/her out again?? You're sayin it's hard to find a job right now, but that so untrue. Mcdonalds around my way is hiring right now. They can earn up to 17,289 Dollars after taxes, and there is welfare/Foodstamp programs also. Bums can get out of their current situation. It would be hard, but it's highly possible.
The way I see it is...a buck or two is not going to help them out right away.
Ya see what Im sayin?
I never said that bums are lazy/stupid... Hell, there are bums that probably graduated from Harvard...I know that bums are in that situation from uncontrolableevents that might of happend in life. My main argument is that a buck or two will not help out a homeless person in the long run unless if they spent it onthe lottery and hit it big, but thats nearly impossible. I hope that your uncle see and recieves better things tho...and I mean that.
Ya get me??
