Work?
[QUOTE=alright4u;270439]....On a side note, I am running into more folks cruising grocery store parking lots, Wallmart supercenters, etc. begging for money. I have plenty of work that needs to be done, but; it seems we have generation or so that refuses to work.........QUOTE]
Work? That is work. Out on the corner, light cycle 3 minutes, three cars per cycle shell out $1 per, times 8 hours equals $480 all tax free. OK he's lazy and only puts in 4 hours. Thats still $240 a day tax free.
Edited to add: Some might wonder where I come up with those numbers.
In the first place every now and again there is a newspaper story about panhandlers. Once story was about a family in the mid-west living in a free hotel room while they took turns hitting the corners. They were pulling in over $400 a day.
Second, there are a number of panhandlers in the Fayetteville area, mostly around the Mall and the north end of the MLK Loop. I run through those areas many times during the week and see them at "work". Keeping a rough count in my head I'd say they average three cars a stop. Little change, mostly a single bill. I'll say a $1 to be on the conservative side.
All of you keep count in your neck of the woods and see if the average holds.
