>We have some panhandlers here that make a fairly good living at it. They actually have homes but dress down everyday and stand on street corners with a sign that states "HomeLess with Children. Will Work for Food." Well, very few offer them a job or work for a couple of hours for food, most just plop $ in the box and there ya go. A better living than working at McDonalds.
They're not you're every day garden verity panhandlers. They are the Professional Panhandlers. :)
Every major cities have them. Some cities have outlawed them. If that don't work, they'll write up the people that give them money.
The American Republic will endure, until politicians realize they can bribe the people with their own money.

No man’s life, liberty, or property is safe while the legislature is in session.
