My problem is, I've been assured by people who actually work at homeless shelters that the ones who want help--including a meal--know where to get it at any time. I know it's not universal, but around here the charities and homeless programs are very well funded, and there is no shortage of free food or a roof to sleep under. Most of the homeless that we do have will turn down food if you offer it to them. They'll tell you that what they
really wanted was Burger King, not McDonald's, so if you could just give them the money they'll head on over there in a minute or two...
