Why are poor people and homeless treated with no respect?

I respect the poor and homeless (not in the same category), because SOME of them are there, not because they want to, but were less fortunate. I can agree SOME homeless people are lazy drinkers who think they have nothing else in life, but not all.

I don’t put homeless and poor people in the same category. I admit that I don’t have much respect for homeless folks who have options to take care of themselves but CHOOSE not to. On the other hand, if someone chooses to have different values re attainment of wealth or choice of job….I respect that. If you (as a poor person) want taxpayers to supplement your lack of work ethic, motivation, drive, ambition, etc., you bet I don’t respect that.
