I couldn't agree more. I only saw one when I was on vacation in the states. I don't see many here. That's probably because were I live, if people want money...They smuggle goods. There is so much smuggling here.... You would be SHOCKED !

No - pretty much for all the reasons listed. The people working the freeway off-ramps are "professionals" - they consider this to be their occupation.

I stick with charities.
