    Ultimately to help people, but if you’re forced to, that doesnt mean anything. It just means you figured paying taxes was easier than going to jail

      It doesn’t mean anything to whom?

      Cause I bet it means a lot to the people who need food and shelter.

      Uhh it means the hungry person is no longer hungry. That’s pretty meaningful to the hungry person.
      If you mean it doesn’t mean anything to you, then that’s your deal.

      I’m not so sure. That smells a bit of entitlement if I’m being honest. If an unhoused person or a single parent in a food insecure household get food assistance/school meals for example, I’m sure the help meant a lot to them. It doesn’t seem like it means anything to you because you have the luxury/security to worry about ethics and other more abstract things. But if you’re hungry, food is food. Help is help. And if you were forced to give the food…those people still get to eat at the end of it all
