To the person on the street corner with the "SELL GOLD HERE!" sign waving at traffic...should I wave back?

Do you see it as rude or friendly when people wave back? I can see how it could feel like both and, considering that job has to suck, I wouldn't want to be condescending...

    When people wave at me, I wave back.

    Think of how he would feel, waving and smiling at people all day long and no one responds in kind.

    Do NOT wave back. They are busy working.
