that guy should be watching his back. lots of people probably not real happy with or for him.
Maybe a "license" or permit should be required. THEN, people who donate to self-promoters (my new word for begging) who DON'T have a license (which would be a picture ID that must be visible when promoting) would get a citation and fined $100 or so.
The worst, as far as I'm concerned, are the "families" who hold up signs of loved ones (young and old) who allegedly need medical care or funeral costs donated.

...and to think that many years ago, I had successfully applied and was offered basic training in Regina. In the interim, I had joined a multinational sales firm and passed on the Mountie's offer.

ummm..then we have a heck of a lot elderly/older claimants along with some younger ones who are physically or otherwise unable to work. Never thought of it a begging
Not if they have paid into it all their lives! C'mon now! LOL. I'm not on SS yet but when I do collect I certainly don't want to be called a beggar after I have worked all my life and paid into it..
Would you still call it that if your life turned upside down and you found yourself in that position? With medical costs and the nature of the way illnesses can come on, that situation could befall a great many people who have worked and paid into that system their whole lives. I don't think I'd call them that.
OK, I'm being unreasonable. Just thinking of my idle grandaughter who does not work nor shows any inclination to do so. I know people who claim Incapacity Benefit but also work (on the black).
A friend of mine gave $20 to a guy in ragged clothes with a "treasure-filled" shopping cart as he walked into a store recently. When he came out a few minutes later, he saw the "beggar" in slacks and sport coat, getting into a nice Mercedes of some sort. He hurried over to the "poor man" and told him that if he didn't give back the $20, the police would be called immediately.
I don't exactly know what YOU'D call this "white collar beggar", but I know what my friend called him.......

While living in SF the college actually offered a coarse in panhandling. How sick is that? Than again, it was SF.
Bob- a guy around here bought a house with the money he begged. He had a nice full time job. Creep!
...I saw this young dude,dressed neat and clean holding a sign stating he would work for food or cash so I approached him and asked him what was up whereby ultimately sussing him out as righteous and promptly gave him 10 bucks,told him to get out of the rain for awhile and thus dashed away lest he protest!!All is not lost my friend...saw him later working for the city landscaping crew with a big,big smile...one of those that you know will pay it forward so to speak!Peace.
