Colin has a good point that there IS food and shelter for every US homeless person in this country. That is a fact. So, why do they beg? Because it is profitable! Americans make more money on average and are more generous with that money. It is dual-sided. You have people that are willing to beg for it and you have people that are willing to give it out. The homeless that beg get more "benefit" from this than they do from going to the homeless shelters and getting free room and board and food. Simple. (?)
