Too many beggars on the road

I believe that money of poor one is in pocket of rich one. there is a way to finish this problem in the world if all of us we could follow this law and that is spending ten percent of our income every month for poor people and give it from deep of your heart and soul. that is the way you will get more money by blessing and those poor life also day by day will get better. but people do not do that, specially rich ones. becuase ten percent of their income, will be a perfect amount and for greedy feeling, they will not make that part away to give to poor ones. that is the reason we have poor people.

only a few on my city. when I see a beggar I cant stop myself to give them money not because I pity of them its because I know that their hungry and want some food to eat. but I feel annoy when so many beggars use their money not for buying food but for gambling. I saw them playing kara krus (Filipino gambling game). with other beggar. your right next time its better to give to them food not money.

Yes, we not only have many beggars on the street, we also have many homeless people. Every time i went to do my weekly shopping in my regular store by the corner, there are always couple of beggars asking for dollar, whenever i go to work in the morning, there are always people standing by the corner of the street, or in front of traffic light holding board sign asking for food and money, it is a sign that our economy is not as good as the government portrayed to us, life is getting tough for many people and the elected politicians had failed to deliver as promised in the election on prosperity for all except for themselves. I normally will gave couple of dollars to the beggars to alleviate some of their pain, as much as i like to do, i feel hopelessly unable to do more since i don't control the government institutions and doesn't has plenty of resources at my disposal to provide more helps to these beggars and homeless people, while the powerful government look the other way on these downtrodden and less fortunate among us, i can only hope God's mercy on them will bring some relief to them in every new day, personally i believe only through government proactive measure and sensible policy can bring some solution to this rising problem in every city across the land.

I think that nowadays, beggars are everywhere. And I know that even New York City isn't spared from having a few. Kids here would be going inside public transports and hand empty envelopes to passengers to ask money. I feel sorry for them but I don't feel right giving them money. So what I would do is give them food instead. That way I know they can have something in their tummy instead of buying something else or gamble in the streets.

One main solution for this is to educate them, teaching and letting them understand that begging is not a good way of living. This will not completely wipe out or drastically decrease the number of beggars but this will help. I personally think that what you did is a great, I can sense that you're a person with a kind heart, but then you're also very right when you said you were encouraging them to beg more. These people need more encouragement than money or food, too bad no one is brave enough to do it.

I think as bagging in india is a crime all the baggers should be arrested. Now talking about government should do something, well they already did in a walfare scheme know as mgnrega which provides a guaranteed way of employment. Now they (Beggars) can use itif they want, but they don't because they just want to sit and eat. They don't want to work, so how u can help a person who just don't want to help himself...

Here in the states, we have people begging. It is hard to tell who is homeless and who isn't. I have heard stories baout people who beg that have nice cars, places to live, etc. Having been homeless myself. Giving money is not helping. Give food and try to help in other ways. I know that jobs are hard to come by. Still, encourage adults to get jobs and children to go to school to learn.

Sometimes we think that we are helping them by giving them alms. But when you look right down to it, are you really helping, or just encouraging them to beg more? To risk their lives and limbs frequenting the streets even chasing the cars just for some alms? I would prefer donating some clothes, food, and money in a charity institution that surely works for the betterment of those people who are homeless or kids who have been abandoned on the streets. I wish i could do more, but this is the best that I can do for now.

Hello girl are very happy to know I am a Chinses boy we can hand make friend I like can understand the situation about your custom of that country

Lol. That's a common sight in India. They think they have nothing else to do except begging. We might never know what made them like this so maybe we can't help them.

Hey.. There are many beggars here as well. They are really very irritating.Why should we encourage them to beg by giving alms instead we should encourage them to do some work for themselves. According to them its the easiest way to earn money. And now it has also become their daily business. Some beggars here dont leave until we give somthing to them. Somtimes i think these beggars are fake and selfish. It would be better if government dont look into this matter...
