Living is San Francisco, I know better than to feed the bears. There are plenty of programs where they can get everything then need to live.
I once used to talk to this old homeless guy with a dog. He told me he made about $300 a day panhandling, which he used to buy heroin. He lived in a cave and people always gave the dog scraps, so he could use all his money on booze and drugs.
I hate dealing with aggressive panhandlers, I told one I didn't have any change and he told me to go buy something else. A guy once asked me for money for food, and I gave him some food I had just gotten from the place I worked and he acted really upset.
People who do a service or preform I sometimes give something to. I used to give a lot more, but I have become a lot more jaded as time goes on.
