That seems more like a social problem, rather than a economic/capitalist problem, no?


Yeah, I never said it was a capitalist problem, I was just answering the question as to whether cities have banned food donations to the homeless.

Not donations, per se, but rather direct dispensing, which is equivalent to responding to panhandling.

As unchristian as the law may sound, there is some sense to it, to help draw the homeless off the streets and towards government/non-profit institutions. The issue, again, is mental illness amongst the homeless who may then be too paranoid to bother.
