nothing makes a rich man feel better about himself than watching peasants fight over scraps
“Benefits” is a grotesque use of the word. Whoever came up with the idea of calling social security “Benefits” is an evil genius.
This is a hilarious take considering the Bedlam unfolding in Dublin tonight.
Scumbags living their entire lives on some of the most generous benefits in Europe decide to burn the city because… ? Racism?
Nothing to do with Billionaires.
Just generational scumbags trying to 1up their parents.
Get a grip.
I support welfare for people who are willing to help themselves.
I’d be fine with giving free housing to people who work at least 32 hours per week, hit the gym and take care of themselves.
If you think they dont negatively affect you then you probably havent lived around them. You have neighbors getting drunk every night staying up late because they have no job and then when you go to work they rob your house. They’re overly aggressive and they treat the house/area like shit by smashing bottles and littering. Obviously not everyone on the benefit does this since I’m on the benefit and I don’t do this.
If there were no billionaires it wouldn’t change my life. Corporations would still dominate the world as hard as they do.
I truly hope no one in your household ever becomes severely disabled and unable to work. Without those benefits, many more disabled people would be homeless and starving (too many already are). It’s already prohibitively expensive to be sick in the US, and people who have worked hard routinely lose their health benefits when they can no longer work, forcing them to ration healthcare and make hard choices between medicine and housing/food.
Even if you personally are able to work and keep your insurance, having a disabled child can utterly destroy your financial security and future.
You’re judging all benefits recipients based on the behaviour of a small minority, when without those benefits, many disabled and elderly people would starve and die.
Where did I say the benefit should be removed? Where did I say this applies to all people on the benefit? All I disagreed with was that people on the benefit negatively affect my life because they do. I almost never see this behavior from people who work.
