Questions without answers

"If a man shuts his ears to the cry of the poor,
he too will cry out and not be answered." ~Proverbs 21:13
Does this mean...the bum I awkwardly ignore, who smells like alcohol, when he's asking me for money, bothering me in Seattle?...The family that is "homeless," but has been begging at the same place for weeks, apparently not seeking help elsewhere?...The advertisements on television?...The requests in the back of christian books?...Anyone and everyone who is need?

I struggle with giving money to those who I believe don't deserve it/will waste it. 

Dear Jesus, rend my heart for the meek---no matter what they "deserve".
