[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The panhandlers are in the grocery stores here in DC area, too. I’ve seen them and been approached in multiple stores.  They often have a piece of paper with a script written on it!  I also see many-a-cellphones on these able-bodied 20 something panhandlers in nice clothes and shoes.  There are plenty of scams going on in rings, too. [/quote]

This happened to me on the corner of Pennsylvania Ave and Minnesota Ave. as a teen waiting for the bus home a panhandler asked for money and people were giving him dollars. Then a phone rang. His phone. I didn’t even have a phone at the time myself so I asked for my money back and so did everybody else. [/quote]

And everyone applauded.

:roll:

The government gives low income people cell phones because you need a phone to do anything now. They get a small amount of data paid for. Job applications require a phone number. Once you have that entry level fast food or retail job you need a phone because you are scheduled randomly. [/quote]
