About 5 to 6 individuals all holding signs at separate corners of an overpass that says "no insurance need money".

Are some people just wired to think of scams during a crisis? What kind of depraved mind immediately mobilizes to scam people?

That was nice of him to give the homeless a ride.

Some people will do anything for money except work.

I wouldn’t stand on a corner all day in a Southern climate if they paid me. That actually sounds worse than any job I’ve ever had

Something tells me that even overly-generous gullible people arent going to be rolling their windows down to get close to people that appear to be homeless these days

These people dont look homeless they're in their 20s at the oldest and their clothes look clean.

Hell, pull up to one and before putting the window down pull out $20, cough on it several times, spit on it and rub the spit in, THEN roll down the window and see if they'll take it.

I've been saying for months that pan handling is an organized racket where certain corners are owned by pimps who are cut in on the money in exchange for protection.

They share best practices for sign verbiage and such.

I’m their panhandling pimp.

I give them a company car, if you will, and they go out and act homeless and i dire need and i collect a percentage at the end of the day.

Easiest money i have ever made

You can say that again. In New Orleans Lakeview area theres a guy whos outside all day claiming to be a veteran and he panhandles in full uniform. now, hes 100% full of shite because the uniform is very incorrect and he definitely just put stuff together that he got from a thrift shop, but man the dude has got some dedication i suppose and im sure tricks a great deal of dumbarses

In all honesty, standing on corners begging for money is probably more difficult work than that performed in some government offices and large corporate bureaucracies I've been around.
