      I mean, supposing they are working age people - why would they choose to live in a tent and panhandle all day? It seems like it would be far more pleasant to work some sort of job and live in a normal home, and buy food at the grocery store. Even if the job isn’t particularly enjoyable, surely it is more pleasant and pays better per hour than standing in the hot sun on a dirty highway off-ramp?

      Also, food is bulky and perishable. Money can easily be carried, and can be a meal a week from now as easily as it can be a meal today.

      Yes, you achieved Level 1 thinking… Keep going! There are more levels of thought to be had! You can do it. I believe in you! I will give you a hint… Why are they in such circumstance? The many complex answers to that question might surprise you! Here’s another hint, “laziness” is not in the top 10 reasons.

      What an ignorant and stupid opinion on the homeless population. You should be ashamed of yourself. Go spend some time figuring out why you are such an awful person.
