If you think there aren't homeless people (and others) who don't gain any money at all, you are living in a fantasy world.
Some don't get $2, not even $1. Some are lucky to get $0 instead of losing money every day.
Sure, some homeless people get assistance from public or private sources, but many others are too mentally ill, depressed, or self-destructive to seek, find, or even accept aid (when aid is available, which it not always is).
And yes, these people do die of starvation, exposure, malnutition, illness, suicide, drug overdose, etc..
Sure, if you're depressed or otherwise crippled, you can earn nothing. But I assume $2 is still about 200 beer cans at Reynolds Aluminum Recycling in the US, right?
