Your question highlights the problem with the issue of homelessness in this country – that it is perceived as a choice and is therefore the fault of the homeless person. Even if the homeless person ‘stole’ the shopping cart, which is questionable, why do you feel compelled to take away the only earthly possession of a person who has nothing else, not even a place to sleep or go to the bathroom? The line between you and homelessness is more narrow than you think. How many business setbacks, downsizings or injuries/illnesses that prevent you from working would it take before you were in financial difficulties? Think about that as you sit in your ‘upper-middle class’ living room, watching your big screen TV.
