Most of them aren’t homeless. At the end of the day, they get in their late model automobile which is parked blocks away, or they get picked up by someone else, and go home, which is a real home.

Many years ago a news crew from a local Florida TV station followed a "homeless" man to his house. When they asked him why he pretended to be homeless, he said "Cause I make $100 a day". That was 20 years ago!

Just a few weeks ago our priest told us,"how you react to a panhandler tells you all you need to know about yourself". We donate to 5 charities every month via automatic withdrawals, but rarely give panhandlers a dime - and I don't lose sleep over it, Father.

I’ve seen them work the highway exits and street corners in shifts here in Dayton, Ohio. How do I know, you ask? They pass on the signs they carry to the next guy, and have a drop off and pick up service.

I saw that happen once. I was at a long light at a busy intersection. I had passed the guy on the way in earlier in the day. As I waited this time, he gathered up his stuff, crossed a couple of lanes and walked to his car in a nearby parking lot.
