A rant by: Anonymous

Hello, I learned from my own experience that society rewards the strong, and shows contempt to the weak. Ah yes, these panhandler people may not SEEM weak, after all two legs plus two physical eyes plus the speaking language of English (and some ornamental expressions too) according to the shallow minded people, equates abilities to make it in this "box" we call a world. Well, actually its round.

However, just as you cannot always fit a giraffe into a zip lock baggie, you cannot expect every person to be so savvy in a capitalist society. After all, the world is dysfunctional because of our money system (but would be anyway since people cannot cooperate they only know how to compete). However, there are people out there who do not have their brains wired the same ways as the rest. For example, I am very slightly Aspie, which means, I have a high IQ and an extremely logical ability and artistic ability, but people skills, what are those? I have no clue I am blind as a bat when discovering people's emotional signals. Therefore, when people are acting like jerks because of my genuine misunderstandings, I am the one doing all the work trying to be nice to them! So therefore, it is hard for ME because I cannot be an emotional basket case going with the flow of the majority, I actually THINK before I attempt to react. Whereas most people think AFTER reacting. Alternatively, sometimes it does not happen at all. They just, act like chickens with heads blown off.

anyway, my big POINT is, you are being judgmental. You might see a shell that looks like it COULD function, but in reality, people WOULD fit in and do well if they COULD. It is the fact that, they know deep down that their lot is not to be a clone or robot, and they would probably lend or give you a lot of money if they had any.

However, you, you live on the other side of the fence, you would judge thoughtlessly, and not actually DO anything to help, just walk away. Its human nature to be selfish, and be annoyed with people who make you slight uncomfortable. However, they are making a statement:

the world is not built to work for everyone, just the very very adept at doing this certain thing called buying and selling.

However if the tables turned, I'd say, most people BOMB at sharing, and doing unto their neighbor, they in fact, wouldn't like it if a poor person tried to pay them back because they only give to charity to either feel powerful or fulfill SELFISH needs to feel good that they did something. There is no sacrifice there!

Therefore, I think, the people who dress poor, maybe they need a clothing makeover, but the people who are dressed "nice" and speak "nice" with all flowery niceties etc...who complain about and show contempt towards those they do not understand, actually should go get a personality makeover, or else, just a brain transplant.

I am sick of people saying nasty things about the poor people like this. It is not very wise. I realize society makes a slight accommodation, but, there is NOT enough help out there to REALLY make a difference for these people, Otherwise, they would not be there. In addition, NO they do not have a choice, because no one can really help to be anything other than who they are. In addition, I think, only God could help you too.

I am not a panhandler, but I am sick of the attitude of the ignorant who have nothing better to do that to pick on people who need your help. You are a disgrace to act like this!

I say, instead of those people changing maybe YOU should change. See how good you do.

Anyway, have a nice day.

P.S. sorry but JavaScript doesn’t' work on my browser, get with the times, maybe you need a web designer to show you the "way", because I can't read your terms, they are too far behind in programming "times", and won't come up in my browser. Thanks anyway.
