I'm sorry, but there is something unacceptable to me about begging strangers for money in America: it should NOT be allowed.

Nor should sleeping in tents and tarps on sidewalks and other public places.

The homeless have failed: rather than expose us to their blight the government should force them to change into better, more productive citizens.

Set up a new CCC / WPA for them; induce the young ones, the druggies looking for purpose, to join the military, Peace Corps, or analogous organizations.

Time to reevaluate the situation before it sinks us all.
