There's nothing wrong with the people giving. They are getting something out of it (validation, emotional high, etc.). But the receiver also has the ability to stop accepting offers.

Like if I'm in line at McDonalds and I forget my wallet at home. Someone nice might offer to pay for my meal and I'd be grateful to accept.
But if the next 6 people line wanted to each throw in $5, I would be wrong as hell taking their money. I already got my meal paid for, what am I going to do with that extra cash?

"I'll take anybody's money if they're just giving it away" (c) Clay Davis

I don't subscribe to that line of thinking.
