    Same as it ever was.

    The Cruelty Is The Point.

    They’d put all the money in a literal pile and set it on literal fire before they’d just help people who need the help.

    If I had to characterize the US govt when it comes to helping its citizens I’d compare it to Immortan Joe.

    Immortan Joe: Do not, my friends, become addicted to water. It will take hold of you, and you will resent its absence!

      the stupid thing is, scandinavia mostly cured their homeless problem. They put up homeless apartment buildings, then assisted them to reintegrate into society, by getting a job, finding a place to live etc. They… saw the humanity and helped them achieve something. Oh, but the USA would never help people down on their luck. Ugh.
