  In many big cities there are people who cannot get work. Sometimes they do not want to work, but sometimes there isn't any work for them to do.

  Some of these people beg for money. Some of them sell boxes of matches or cheap pens, and some or them sell flowers.

  Andrew never gave money to beggars. "People should work for their money," he believed. He also believed there was work for everyone, which was however not true.

  "Give an old woman ten dollars, mister," she said to Andrew. "I haven't had a meal for three days."

  "I'm not giving you ten dollars," Andrew said.

  "What about five dollars, then, mister?" the poor old woman asked. "That'll buy me a couple of pieces of bread."

  "No," Andrew said.

  "Then what about one dollar?" the old woman asked. "I can buy an orange."

  "I haven't got one dollar," Andrew said. "Now go away."
