I see it as 2 separate issues really, with some charities being far more manipulative and annoying than any individual beggar.
And not all beggars are less fortunate, some prefer the lifestyle they live. They don't want to "succeed" in "Babylon", they want to do their own thing. Even the conditions that the Salvation Army etc. puts on their help is too much for many - and those places are freaking creepy.
