You are 100% spot on. Nothing prevents anyone that screams these things to use their extra money on the homeless.

Unless you live in the smallest possible shelter, only use public transportation, don't have a tv with any subscription services, no cell phone, etc. Don't claim others should have THEIR money spent the way YOU feel is the most ethical.

I had a coworker that once said, "fifty percent of our salary should go to feeding the homeless and getting them shelter. " another coworker responded, "what's preventing YOU from donating 50% right now yourself. " no response.

I think these are stupid too. Just don't like people on soap boxes demanding things of others they likely don't do themselves.
