[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There has been a serious uptick in panhandling all over the city. Particularly in Ward 3, it seems that many of the seemingly panhandlers are voucher recipients. If voucher recipients are getting free housing, shouldn't they be asked to get a job at some point to contribute a bit to the rent and support themselves without begging? [/quote] YES. They should. There should be conditions. That was the whole reasoning behind welfare to work. I laughed out loud when a dude was begging next to CAVA the other day. Young, healthy, coherent dude standing next to a fast express restaurant asking for my money as I walked home from my job. Go fill out a job application! Hilarious to put more energy into doing anything but work, than it would take to work.[/quote]
