I think there's a distinction that needs to be made here between the homeless and 'street people'. Not all homeless are begging for change. Not all homeless sleep on the street. Some stay at their friend's/family's houses, etc. I don't think the issue is with the homeless, per say, the issue is just with those who beg for money, refuse to get a job, and have no health issues, mental or physical, preventing them from holding down a steady paying job.
