I'd be happy to pay more in taxes if we could improve the system to make sure that people like that woman and her son had the basic essentials (a warm place to sleep at night, an address, a phone number, a bank account, presentable clothing, maybe some job training) to be employed. It's safer and happier for all of us. I don't want to just move further and further away from less fortunate people as I make more money and they're eating from dumpsters. I want the cities to be safe, happy places, and having people living on the streets trying to panhandle is so antithetical to that. It's also just morally wrong.

Excellent post. I couldn't have said it better.
