It's so effing hilarious that some people are afraid that if they give a hobo money, he will spend it on booze. I mean, do they really expect the guy to have the ability to turn his life around with a couple bucks?
Food doesn't come cheap either, so if you want him to buy a sandwhich with your change, that's all he'll be able to afford. Besides, there are places all over that supply the homeless with meals, and let's not forget all of the tasty morsels supplied by your local dumpster.
Alcohol can at least give the pathetic individual a little joy in life, and there ain't nothin' wrong with that.

There are places they can go to get a free meal. If they choose not to do that, then it's their loss. I put my money into these charities so that they can survive, and quite frankly I think it would be stupid to give money directly to homeless people who are quite clearly capable of walking to the homeless shelter just so that they can eat a sandwich.
I don't agree with alcohol or homeless people making their situation worse with it. Many people have become homeless as a result of alcohol, so in my eyes the humane thing to do is anything that will help them stay away from the stuff.
