During the depression men would stop at the house and ask if there was any work they could do. Those of us lucky enough to have a roof over our heads and food expected this. Even if there was nothing needing doing Mom would make them a good sandwich.

Today if a homeless out of work person was to show up an anyone's doorstep I am quite sure the homeowner would call 911, the song was right,, the times they are a'changin.

Of course it never occured to that asshole to make that offer to the homeless man.
