Do beggars deserve sympathy?

From ancient times to the present, no matter how the society develops, this profession has always existed.

In the distant old society, begging was due to poor harvest or misfortune, and life was really hard, so I had to go out and beg for some food to live in a slightly richer place, commonly known as begging. Begging is very common, and it is really a helpless move. Who is willing to condescend to gain sympathy from others if it is not necessary? At that time, when someone came home to beg for food, people always warmly received them and took out their own leftovers, because everyone knew that life was not easy. When people came to the door, they showed that they were better than him, and no one knew whether they would be in trouble next time. I have seen this situation until I was a child twenty years ago.

Then, food and clothing gradually ceased to be a problem, and begging began to be borne by some fixed people, who were often mentally ill or unfortunately unable to work. They can't get enough food and clothing by themselves, so they have to walk around in rags every day and rely on alms from others to make a living.

With the rapid development of economy, beggars no longer beg for money, and people's attitude towards beggars has also changed, from sympathy to anger. If you meet an old beggar, you will be angry that their children are unfilial, which will make the old people appear in public and lose face. If you meet a disabled person begging, you will be angry at his experience, and the disadvantaged groups will not be properly placed. If you meet a strong beggar, you will be angry that he wants to get something for nothing when his hands can support himself.

When begging changes from a helpless move to a profession.

When the things behind begging become more and more complicated, will you feel that the three views are corrupt and unintelligible?

A friend told me that if she met beggars who were old, weak and sick, she would pity them and give them some money. When she saw those healthy people begging, she wouldn't fight, and cursed for a hundred times in her heart. If you don't do well, you must be a beggar

Her views represent the views of a large part of people.

Another friend's attitude is the opposite. She put it this way: everyone came out to make money, some people gave their physical strength, some people gave their brains and begged for their self-esteem. I don't want to give money to the disabled, because many of them are fake. This is not begging at all, but cheating. Healthy and young beggars are different. It takes courage to put down their dignity and beg when they can make money through other jobs. At least, they are honest and have not cheated. I am willing to give alms to them, because as long as I can hear a few auspicious words with very little money, I will be grateful to them and regard them as a heaven and man, as if I have done many good deeds and achieved great success. They just sacrificed their dignity to satisfy our sense of superiority.

I don't deny that there are really disabled people, but I don't like them either. It's not your fault that you suffered misfortune, but it's your fault that you didn't stay at home and be taken care of by the government. It's your fault that you came out to respond to others and block traffic with your ugliest place. If you spend a lot of money and think that the subsidies given by the government are not enough for your life, you can also find better ways to make money. A normal person needs to walk around begging, get up early and get greedy for the dark. You are a disabled person, occupying a free booth on the roadside and polluting everyone's audio and video without moving. Why do you still want to make money? There are not a few disabled people who have regained their job opportunities through hard work, and even some outstanding people have made greater contributions to society than normal people. This is very encouraging. In contrast, going out to beg is simply too low.

Most of these begging children are trafficked, and their disabilities are more man-made. If you pay for them out of pity, when traffickers see that it is profitable, they will intensify their efforts to kill more innocent children. Our actions hurt them in disguise. If you are afraid that they will be beaten because they can't get the money, then help them call the police and get them out of their clutches.

This friend said the same thing, but I was speechless after listening to it.

Another friend said that the most annoying thing is "paid begging", that is, those disabled people who sing in pedestrian streets and subways and deaf people who sell handicrafts with notes. Maybe they still want to keep their dignity, maybe they know that begging is annoying, and they don't know who they learned this trick from, which is extremely inferior. They play a voice that can shake people's nerves, sing extremely old and vulgar songs, and drag the tune to the Pacific Ocean, which intoxicates them and makes them avoid it. I must have run away.

Selling handicrafts is also irritating. Eighty percent of people don't want to ask for help. They just want to do a business with a piece of paper, which is called public welfare. The products they sell are astounding in design, simple in technology but extremely clumsy, and negligible in size. However, the starting price will be 10 yuan. Excuse me, has your sincerity been eaten by the dog? I gave money as soon as I was moved, but I felt cheated afterwards. When I meet these people again, I just want to say, "If you want money, please say it openly, and I will donate it, but please don't waste handmade raw materials, okay?" ! "

Begging was originally the last resort. This is to show weakness to the whole world in order to get a chance to survive. I believe that in this case, everyone who has the ability is willing to lend a helping hand. But now begging is an option. As long as you are willing to give up face, you can make money in this way. Many rural families who come to work in cities have different division of labor. Some people are cleaners, some people drive taxis, some people beg in the street, and sometimes they change classes. This is just a joke. Just like touching porcelain. I've seen it a lot, and no one sympathizes with it, and no one believes it.

Just like another tearful topic-borrowing money, it is difficult to collect it now, because there are really few people who borrow money and want to enjoy it more. Society provides us with many ways to raise funds, such as buying a house, getting a mortgage loan and getting a student loan to go to school. As long as we follow the procedure, we don't need to lose face or be embarrassed at all. Of course, we will choose these methods, so many people who borrow money from friends are people who don't care about face. Are people who don't care about face afraid of your rush? Will you cut back on your expenses in order to pay back the money? Will friendship be more important than money? What's strange about their friends saving the money they lent them?

When they borrow money, they still promise to pay it back. Begging is an upgraded version of not paying back money. Obviously, give me money to spend, not pay it back.
