"People are so concerned about the homeless -- who will be concerned for the middle class? The homeless steal, and in effect they literally steal public places by living there; they steal private land by living there," she complained. ... We play by all the rules, they play by none.

This is a topic of great interest to me.

I know that many are mentally ill, or mentally unable to take part in society.

And others are so lazy and irresponsible that they are the personification of inertia.

Yet others are living below the "radar", with one or several warrants (including illegal aliens).

The problem? How to i.d. those deserving of our help?

And if this could be done with some accuracy, for the others?

Strong vagrancy laws with vigorous enforcement; and, finger printing, photographs and/or dna testing before free anything.

At first I bristled at your finger printing pre-requirement for benefits, but then I remembered the numerous times I have been fingerprinted and had fbi/bcci search requirements in order to be hired at my job.

I don’t know, but I’m pretty sure Photo IDs are racist. Fingerprints are likely also.

The USSC has determined that vagrancy isn’t a crime, so strong vagrancy laws are a bit difficult.
