Since there is cost to everything, even if it is a few seconds of time or the burning of some extra energy....

you have helped people despite the cost.

Look at you being a decent human being, Todger!

Yes but quite often it’s people who have had horrendous upbringing and end up with mental disorders who then become homeless. Not ALL of them but a lot of them. They end up self medicating and spiral downhill. I agree! They aren’t easily housed but Artful Todger over simplifies this problem by a long shot. ( in my opinion )

Some people are born survivors, some are not. They are born victims and exploit it.

Are you actually saying that some victims ,know that they are a victim?
Born a victim?
If you are ,I completely disagree with you.

You can be a victim and not even know it, if you have been brought up in abuse, the whole of your life, you are the victim of abuse, you know no different.....therefore you play it out ,unknowingly.because that’s all they have ever known.
