Two things:
1 - Alas, yes it is your problem. You can't squeeze blood from a rock. You have two options. A - evict them or whatever or B - be compassionate and help to get them back on their feet. If you add up the costs to you for each I'm confident you will find that kindness is more profitable. I encourage you to do the math for yourself, you may be leaving money on the table.
2 - They do give away free food, medical supplies and even toys at Walgreens. I see people using their EBT card, donating to the toy drives and food banks there daily. Local stores are a key part of our system to collect and distribute resources to the under nourished and under privileged.
Not all handouts are theft. You seem to automatically equate handouts to theft. Perhaps do some self work to see where this connection started.
I'll sum it up for you:
You could be even richer if you were kinder. If you do so, you'll find other forms of richness as well (not just financial). To help you on your journey I suggest you read (or watch) The Christmas Carol, I like the Muppets one. It's not a religion thing (I'm not), it's a kindness benefits everyone, including yourself, thing.
