As a man that has been homeless, I resent that statement. Don't generalize anything. It's prejudice and ignorant.

I just look away from homeless people, cause their story tends to make close to no sense at all.
Like this one woman i would see walking through the train cars with her 4 year old daughter... or 7... begging for money to help them get through the day. ACS system in NYC sucks, yes, but damn. they would of had that mother go on welfare or took the child away from her.
majority of the times, its all just simple laziness. there was a clip on tv i saw some time ago of a woman begging on the streets for a while, then calls it a day and walks back to her BMW. you're homeless and driving a BMW...
wtf?

I would have done the same.... i could make 20 dollars standing around. Or i could make my self hungry and tiered. Maybe if you said $50 he would have said yes. Dont look at it as weekly pay, cause its not, your not giving him a big pay check at the end of the week, i bet if you wear he would be at your house every day.
