Beggars can be seen in public places, such as in the streets, subway cars or at scenic spots in almost all the big cities. Some are for real and need the money. Others are just members of a gang or are used to collecting money. Would you give beggars money, or just ignore(忽视) them? Different people have different views.

I usually don’t give money to beggars except when they don’t have the ability to live on themselves. However, there are a lot of beggars out there who still have a good body and are really able to work for some kind of jobs. But instead of working hard, they only depend on others to feed them. I don’t like to help those beggars.

You all don’t understand. When you give money to a beggar, even “one or two coins”, you are creating more beggars. If you really want to help a beggar, you’ve got to stop and give them your time. Find out where they live, what is the origin of their problem, etc...Then, if they don’t have a home, you’ve got to take them to a shelter. By the way, most of the beggars you meet don’t want your help. They want your money!

In Europe, some people do the “professional begging”. Now in the newspapers in Poland, there is a story about a man who owns some good cars, has nice house etc, living as a professional beggar. This is one of the reasons I avoid giving anything to beggars. Another reason is that some of them are kind of like the Mafia, which forces kids and others to “work” for them.
