42. I have in big cities
There are not many pandhandler saround here in rural Wisconsin. My husband and I gave a coworker some food and clothes even though we knew that he reguarly blew what remained of his pay check (It was severely garnished and eventually becamed almost entirely garnished when his rent was being taken out as well) on alcohol and drugs. Although some people's problems may be partly their own doing, they still need basics like food and clothing. If you worry about money going to things that are contributing to their problems or things that you disapprove of, give food and clothing.
