The fortunate adopt so many self-serving false narratives about the poor and unhoused.
"Don't provide help. They'll just waste money on cigarettes, drugs, and alcohol".
Sometimes, that money goes to the phone they use to get that job, keep in touch with family, or keep their place on a waiting list for housing.
It's how social services are delivered nowadays - via phone.
Wish there was a better way to recycle second hand phones to the less fortunate.

Another way the cruel justify their cruelty: lies about self-help.
