Fun fact, people can lose jobs, spouses can pass away, medical emergencies can happen, etc. everyone is one situation away from possibly needing assistance.

You are absolutely right, but ask the residents of the Palisades, Altadena, and Malibu if we should rely on the government for what we need. We have a lot of excess in America and your friends, neighbors, and community should help you because you’re the kind of person who deserves to be helped. You shouldn’t just be able to make them all pay you five dollars because? you said you need it? While you post from an iPhone, vaping, and your edible is hitting. 🙄

Brother everyone in the US pays taxes. Majority of people who receive assistance work full time. If my taxes aren’t going to help those in need then why pay them? What you ok with these corps using your taxes and these politicians using your taxes but not the poor person down the street? Honestly stfu and gtfo.

No, everyone does not pay taxes. How is it? You think that $40 comes out of your check for federal taxes but you get a $2000 refund? And how do you get $9000 because you have two kids? You aren’t paying taxes, the government is subsidizing your life under the guys that you’re paying taxes.

OK, take everybody’s money who makes over $400,000 a year. You can pay the federal budget for 9 to 10 months. You got your way now how do we pay our bill bills and how do we pay snap? You’re so smart.

Who is getting 9k for having two kids? The average was 2-3k. You are wayyy uninformed. Also the money that comes out of your check isnt the only thing. You pay taxes each time you buy something as well. Also brother that’s annual. You find me someone in the US who can live off of 3k a year.

"because you're the kind of person who deserves to be helped" just say you think recipients of state assistance are morally inferior and move on. no need to rationalize your resentment to the rest of us sane and compassionate people
