They beg mostly for money, because they want booze/drug money and get food at the local food shelf/homeless shelter. Just about every city in the US provides for the poor and the homeless in some way, but obviously doesn't tend to give them cash. It just kind of irks me when they only want cash. Take the fucking hamburger, homeless guy!

It's kind of my whole thing, as someone who is trying to getting into fundraising and non-profit donor development, a bunch of funds handled together and in a better, strategic way will be better than the same amount just tossed around in spare change.
You can't just "get a job" when you live on the street, look (and probably smell terrible), probably don't have ID, and don't have a mailing address. It's going to take a whole lot more than spare change at the right moment to help homelessness. Ugh, my head is soooo "ugh" and I can't focus enough to even tell if this makes any sense or is going in any direction.

However, that wasn't actually what I was referring to. I was more referring to homeless people who go to a shelter every night, get food when they want it, and beg for booze/drug money. So, basically, a very narrow demographic.
