why is the rich so mean to homeless people?

Because homeless people are HILARIOUS. Have you ever seen Bum Fights? Oh my gosh, homeless people are always walking around with that meth-withdrawal alcohol stupor look on their face, they stink like a skunk that crawled out the bunghole of another skunk, and they generally just make themselves targets. Besides, it feels great to be able to be mean to people like that and then go home and soak in my spa.

It is the greediness of the real estate market doing these people in.  San Francisco has one of the highest rates of homelessness in the nation, and is the second most dense urban area in the nation behind New York.  Simply put, these people can't afford to live in a house In San Francisco, nor can they rent.

People have it way worse then you. You're rich compared to people in poorer countries. Think of them starving, next time you think it's the end of the world when you can't buy the newest camera phone. Money isn't everything.

I wish I could give you ten points for even asking this question, you are a true and real genius!!! This is how it always ends up doesn't it?!?! I think that lost people see nice people (people that have found their inner selves) and try to take advantage. Those people try to gain what they need from nice people because they lack this!!They latch on like a parasite, but only if they knew that they have to achieve that task on their own. In other words usually people that pick on nice people, 9 times out of 9 have issues lying within thierselves and unfortunately nice people are bombarded with this destruction!!

Because they know they can get away with it.  There are some people in this world who unfortunately are bumbs and will take advantage of any act of kindness.  I believe that is why the people are like they are, tough and cold.  we have a neighbor who has lived on our land for three years now and has paid exactly 70.00 to us.  Pretty cheap rent don't you think?  Makes me sick.  I don't mean to be rude to him but he runs on our light bill which is running us abotu 650.00 a month.  It was our decision at the time to let him because he was down ond out, but I think htree years is ong enough.  He should start paying something now.

i think i understand your question a little.\nBeggers in any part of the country are hopeless and have no choice to make in their lives. It people who are generous who give enough money for organizations which can make a difference in people's lives. With people who do not care about the homeless and beggers, the world will never progress. Hopefully this answers your question. Take care\n\ntrisha

Some people don't like their lifestyles, I guess. It bothers them that people who get as much booze, money, sex, and drugs are adored by millions.

Because they have inherited money and don't have to work if they don't want to.The Social Register is a list of very wealthy people they are called socialites

You don't want to admit how much money you have if the people around you have less. You don't want to brag or make them feel bad. I think that's why rich people keep what they make to themselves.

Believe it or not, there are many homeless people out there because they choose to be. It is easier living hand to mouth than working for a living. Until the fraudulent ones are weeded out there is nothing that we can do to solve the problem.

I see the answer in the question, If you are rich,then you are keeping it all to yourself, laying up treasure on earth.If you gave the money to feed the hungry, house the homeless,pay doctors for the ill, then you would no longer be rich,in the earthly sense.

Being wealthy is not evil. \nI don't understand the jealousy liberals have toward wealthy people that makes them think anyone who has succeeded in life should have it taken away by the government so that it can be given to those who have not succeeded. \n Sure, if you make good decisions and work hard and have alot of money you should give to charities and help others as much as possible, but that's a personal decision. The government should not force you to do it .

Well Chuck, I think its because of the way they have been bought up. Their social and economic circumstances...thier relationship and family environment can affect they way they act.\n\nYou have to feel sorry for these people. They are the loosers.\n\nHold your head up high and be happy that you are a well adjusted and well balanced person.

It's because society is sometimes very selfish and inconsiderate of their neighbors. People should learn how to respond to others with respect and fairness.

Nice that you want to help them but be careful. I work in los angeles and see them every day. The old man who lives upstairs was inviting them in and giving them food and money. Pretty soon the homeless were hanging around the building. They break things and leave a mess inside the bathrooms. Now we lock the gates at night and don't allow them around here. \n\nI got to know some of them...they have no ambition. One guy I know drinks every day. His father cares about him and has told him if he stops drinking he will get an apt. for him and give him $300 every week but he refuses to go to rehab. \n\nI feel sorry for these homeless people but wish sometimes they would just go away.

true wealthy people seek value within, eliminating the need for material posessions.  Poverty is a state of mind.  You can live richly in the most extreme conditions

Makes the rich richer and the poor poorer. Hurts more than helps.
