Out of gas in Murray KY on way to AZ
A guy was at Walmart trying to raise money for gas and food in a class C so some others helped out and I topped off tank. Hoping he makes it to Phoenix.

This is always a touchy subject.
It sounds like many of you live in the suburbs or rural areas, where you don't encounter "real" homeless people.
We spend a lot of time in a big city, and it is easy to see who is really homeless and who is just standing at an exit ramp with a sign.
I once had a homeless guy offer to do 10 pushups in exchange for my wife's cup of coffee. She had not yet taken a drink and we gave it to him along with $10. We told him he didn't have to do the pushups, but he did anyway. This man was clearly living on the street, not driving off in a Corvette.
When you spend a lot of time in big cities like Chicago, NYC, and D.C., you can tell who is really homeless.
Spare me the "they can get help" nonsense, as many homeless people in this country are mentally ill and telling them to just "go get help" is like me telling you to "just make more money and retire tomorrow."
