I genuinely feel bad for people struggling but a lot of the homeless people in this area are such assholes to people I walked by a couple of them talking last week and had seen one of them panhandling at one of the intersections earlier. The guy was complaining to the other one about all the fucking change people gave him that day Guy wasnt the least bit grateful, and its frustrating because a lot of the people who gave him what they could are probably struggling to make ends meet themselves That remark about the change reminded me about anecdotes about homeless people shunning/demanding vegan food. Really, we should all be grateful for what we have. But at the same time, who should be allowed to complain? Maybe for a homeless person, having so many coins is hard on them because they might not always have a safe place to store it, and those of us who store change in jars know that coins get heavy fast! Not to mention, cashiers/customers in line get pissed if you try to pay them in all quarters or whatever coins. --- I consider it completely unimportant who in the party will vote, or how; but what is extraordinarily important is this who will count the votes, and how. <cite>jramirez23 posted [p:909865276] in Do you giv...
