    It’s off topic only because you want it to be. Just give the poor some money and mind your business. Stop supporting a fucking police state that had its nose up everyone’s ass and has arbitrary and penalizing standards that people have to meet.

    It’s is a massive societal problem with a simple solution: mind your fucking business. Studies gave shown that giving the poor money leads to substantially better outcomes than creating a massive bureaucracy. The latter is also more expensive and wasteful of taxpayer dollars.

    Meanwhile the rich want to pay poverty wages and dodge taxes.

        It’s not “black and white”, it’s what the data supports.

        In the UK you already have mental health services, what more do you need to do? If they’re not seeking help then being punitive and imprisoning them isn’t going to suddenly improve their lives. How do you think the state could be more involved without being absolutely inhumane?

        Taxing the rich isn’t going to fix anything at all if those tax dollars just go back into incentives for corporations; i.e. right back into the pockets of the wealthy.
