This is the most eloquent summary of "bums are lazy". I propose it's highly unlikely that a person who is living on streets is doing so simply because they are lazy. Imagine freezing in the winter or sweating in the summer. How about worrying where you'll find food, staying safe from unstable people or maybe even well off people who attack/kill the homeless. Your claim is that this is a choice out of a laziness and not a mental disorder and/or an inability to get a job due to reasons outside of their control. What's also interesting is that if you claim it's their choice then not helping doesn't make you look bad.
