We get panhandlers in Tucson because it's warm. Handouts from passerby cars is not the reason...sure it helps that these addicts can make 60 bucks or more in a couple of hours to pay for their next meth/Fent hit and some food, but that is a bonus to them...not the reason they are here. Bums freeze to death in Chicago...they don't in warm areas...pretty simple...Also, many of them are not addicts and have found themselves in a situation they never could forsee.
