Here's what I think about when I see all the healthy people panhandling under overpasses, on street corners, parking lot entrances, etc., all of whom are ignoring the "HIRING NOW" signs all over the place. When I took my wife to Chili's the other day, the place was mostly empty, and we had to wait for seating because they didn't have enough servers. If panhandlers put as much effort into serving customers in good restaurants, they might make as much from good tips as sitting out in the heat and cold, waiting for a public to enrich them, a public that is becoming increasingly tired of them being deadbeats not wanting to work for what they get.
