what do you do when you see a homeless person on the streets begging for money ?

I never really give them money because I don't want to contribute to their addictions .

homeless youth can easily become involved with drugs and prostitution . Do you do anything to help them ?

I usually ask them if they want some food and then give them something to eat . I figure that if they're homeless , they're probably hungry .

that's a good idea . Do they usually accept the food ?
neutral
user
almost always . However , sometimes they get mad at me for not giving them any cash .

it's sad how more and more young people are sleeping on the streets in London now .

the cost of living in London is just too high for most people .

it's true . The economy is in a bit of mess at the moment .

did you know that few people can pay the rent on minimum wage , let alone pay for food and other living costs ?

there just isn't enough affordable housing to go around . If only the housing cost would drop , fewer people would be in financial trouble .

added to that is the high unemployment rate right now .

politicians like to ignore the problems of the working class . They like to focus on making life easier for the upper class .
