Okay, and someone that's starving would rather dumpster dive. But we shouldn't be feeding starving people out of a dumpster, just because they'll take it over nothing.

Also, FWIW, I'm pretty far away from a large metro area, and about 20 miles outside of a two traffic light town. Living in any of these abandoned homes would make it very challenging for an unhoused person to find a job, or even get to a grocery store.
