what is begging..??

Begging is the solicitation of money or food, especially in the street. There is a close relationship between begging and homelessness and homeless charity Crisis estimates that over 80 per cent of beggars are homeless. People who beg are among the most vulnerable in society, often trapped in poverty and deprivation, and it is regarded as a risky and demeaning activity.

Begging is visible on the streets of many British towns and most of the public report seeing someone begging in a public place at least once a week. Research carried out by the University of Glasgow found that begging was overwhelmingly driven by need rather than greed, although the apparently increasing prevalence of begging is coupled with an increasing perception that beggars, rather than being homeless and hungry, use the money they receive to support their addiction to drugs or alcohol. *suzana*....

This is the purpose of begging briefly. begging is associated with the idle life. most of the beggar did not have their own home. They are trapped in poverty and it is regarded as a Risky and demeaning activity.

Poverty and oppression is the sin of the world. Super rich people live streets away from the starving and don’t even see them. They don’t even care because they lack a conscience. Those beggers who use it to make decent money, are no different than business men who also operate to gain profits, so we should not look down on them for it. If we did to others as we would like to be done to us, then there would not be any poverty, because there is enough wealth in the world to go around. Greed, power and control blinds those who rule, and they only seek wealth for themselves.
