Being a bastard works



lllllllllllllllllll posted:

In Europe a lot of foreign beggars are supposedly (I heard this so often I think it's true) from Eastern Europe who have to return their earnings to some kind of pimp (they even employ children). Do the US have a similar problem of organised crime?

Ignoring all the tabloid scare stories, there absolutely are organised begging gangs like you describe in the UK.

One more reason to give money to homeless shelters and charities instead of directly.
