Here's a thought...
You how on about every street corner there are homeless people asking for money. Then they always look at you to try and make you feel guilty! Then maybe couple days later you see the same homeless guys looking thought garbage cans and hauling bags of recycling to the recycling center so they can "earn" money to eat. Well here is an idea... What if they stood on the corner with a garbage bag and people could give them the empty soda bottles in there car.
So it would a.) Helping the homeless, b.) Helping to keep the city clean, c.) Keeping to keep our car clean, and d.) Not having to feel guilty for work for a living like everyone else, why should I just give you money for standing on the corner. What are you going to do a little dance for me or something, not just stand there looking at me because I have no money to give you or plan just don't want to!! So I think if they want use to give them money, they should be will to earn it by taking the bottles to the recycling center!! Do you agree??
