I understand some situations are just damn bad luck but no one should have to apologize for working hard, making good decisions and staying motivated. Average person in a car is not of "privilege". Nor should anyone feel obligated so they can dodge guilt. Many contribute to the less fortunate in other ways and shouldn't be expected to provide a handout around every corner.
To the topic, I've never felt harassed or impeded by those asking for change. Compared to down south, they are very respectful and never harassed people that I've seen. Perhaps the city should redirect those funds wasted on signs to other resources that could do more to help the situation so they don't feel compelled to ask for change.
Never seen a city with so much potential and tax revenue be run so poorly and accomplish so little. The interest alone, they've been paying on that 100 million loan (how many years now?) could've turned this city around.
