I'm sorry, but I just cant stand "handouts".

I have a cousin who lives in SRO-type housing in a tenderlion apartment.

He pays pennys for the place because of handouts. He lives in an excellent location in a very nice apartment and contributes absolutely nothing to the SF economy and surrounding neighborhood. He just feeds off the system and has been doing it for years.
