Annoying beggars at every major intersection. They get angry when you hand them a resource card for homeless shelters, soup kitchens, employment assistance, drug treatment. As some of them have told me, "I can get $200 a day 'flying cardboard' on the street to buy coke. I can't get a job that pays that."

Homeless people like being patronized by people who feel superior to them about as much as non-homeless people like it? I'm shocked! Shocked!

So it's patronizing to offer help, but compassionate to give money to feed their addiction (and incidentally fund drug-dealing gangs and drive-by shootings). Interesting logic.
