Been there done that got the t-shirt... twice

I WOULD NOT become a gold brickin' pan handler.

I WOULD... do what any other hard working person would do, roll up my sleves, shed my pride and walk my ass down to taco bell or burger king and fill out an application... Work multiple jobs... Move to a part of the country where work is readily available.

There is a help wanted sign in nearly every shop, store, restaurant and fast food joint where I live.

Believe it or not I made more money per year stocking shelves at dollar general than I ever did while putting my $100,000 education to work at a regional airline... The jobs like at dollar general suck... But they pay the bills... if one is in fact desperate... No job is really beneath you.

My money IS mine... It's money I worked hard for, went to school for, worked sh*tty thankless jobs for... Charity should be voluntary, not a federal requirement.
