I want to give them money but since my childhood my parents pretty much told me that they are all either faking it or are too lazy to go to work for money. I mean, I guess they can go to work but not everyone gets accepted to work as easy as it sounds like.

    And Kant would, if I read him correctly, argue that giving money to a beggar is not a moral action - it’s a selfish action, and not morally bad or good as such. It doesn’t have to do with morality, it has to do with our need to feel better about ourselves. :)
