Homeless people begging

Today I came off an exit ramp of the AA onto Us 27 highway
Here in the middle of county
Zero possibility of a Homeless person
Zero
Yet a guy was standing along the exit begging
For money with the Famous cardboard sign
Homeless

Next I go past Walmart there is a Lady standing On the corner same type of sign

Both looked to be in there 30’s
I wanted to roll the window down and yell
Get a JOB
Or YELL were you Parking your new Truck

Impossible to be there without transportation
I’ll shut up
Rant Over
Well maybe one last sentence
I know for some Mental Illness is a terrible thing but when a grown man prays on hand outs I get Ticked

It is their job, they can make more manning a corner than most people will working, I had one of them tell me one time that they would average about 400 dollars a day if it was a decent corner, more if it was a real good one. They pray on people being basically good and wanting to help but by giving them anything you are just making the problem worse.

Most of them that I see are very close to Walmart and other stores.if they were truly worried about their wellbeing,they’d be in there filling out applications mental illness in some cases but most just wanna make a living on handouts,imho

I’ve asked this question for years…are you ready?
Tell me ware they get a marker,good enough to wright them big bold block letters on that dry rump cardboard!
I challenge you to go through your house and find 1 just 1 color good enough to do that with,
And some of them will do it multi colored!
Just saying!
