I Love Homesless People...they are truly some of the most beautiful people on Earth. I have a lot of homesless friends in DC.....BUT...there's a problem with the Homeless Industry.
1. Homeless people's entire (well main) source of revenue are gifts from people that they come into contact with. Idk if they have noticed a decline in revenue over the last few years, but it seems to me that the homeless business will one day become obsolete, as most people don't carry cash anymore. And for clarity, I'm not saying that being homeless will cease to exist, but the business of being homeless sure doesn't seem to have a bright future.
AND JUST FOR RANDOMS SAKE:
-It's bothersome when homeless people ask for random, odd numbers of change. (i.e. "Can I just have 7 cents?") I mean, honestly, just go for the whole dollar.
A. It is not likely that I just happen to have a nickel and 2 pennies, nor 7 pennies...and even if i do, are we really going to stand here, in DC, with all the possibility of being robbed in the world, and wait for me to locate all of that change??
B. Set your sights high. If, in fact, whatever endeavour you need this change for only requires 7 cents, pocket the other 93 cents. And if whatever it is that you're doing only requires 7 cents, you'll be good...for a while.
Ok..that's all.
