Stand in front of the soup kitchen with a bat, declare the kitchen to be "yours", and demand people pay you tribute for admission.

That doesn't make you a genius, just an asshole.

In an ideal world, yes. Homeless people are frequently preyed upon though, particularly in less developed parts of the world.

At a much different scale, consider warlords that sell intercepted donated food to the people it was meant to go to for free. They aren't geniuses, just massive assholes.
