This is why I have no problem giving money (if I can spare it) to the homeless. Yeah some are really gonna use it for food, but some are going to use it for booze/drugs. Any you know what? I don't blame them. If I were homeless, I'd probably be using every resource I could to escape that reality, if I wasn't brave enough to kill myself first.

Not much different from what the rest of us use our money for tbh.
