Pay them 5 bucks for every nugget of plutonium ingested, and as an added bonus, you'll be able to watch in real time how the homeless "person" grows a third arm!
Very well said! People forget about dignity and what it means to be human. We are more insensitive then ever, Exploiting pain for gain. Our own gain. Why go to sleep knowing others have been helped when we can line our own pockets, Right? Awful. Look at TV shows! Addictions, Family tragedies, Mental illness-All reality shows.

The same folks do not realize how one can fall in a short period of time. No one is invincible.

I will ask these folks one question: You can throw a punch, But can you take one??

Homeless is different from someone just doing it as a job, it as if the companies are advertising and benefiting form the person's misfortune.
I feel the same way. I hope the homeless WANT to do it and are not being forced to.
