Reply To: Should A Pauper Be Thrown Out of Town?

zsdad: If that were true, in fact we’d be halachicly required to give you tzedaka to maintain that lifestyle should you lose your high income.

But we are not even talking about a rich man having a drop in income. We are talking about a poor man who became poorer and now cannot afford even the little he previously had.

It would be cruel and unjewish to brush him off and tell him to move elsewhere. And unhalachic.
