This is so sad, blows my mind there’s so many people who still think basic necessities shouldn’t be covered by the government after reading things like this all the time

They shouldn’t be. The government isn’t your mother.

Earn your own money and stop relying on welfare from the government.

The problem is when people who are working 2+jobs can't afford to pay rent and basic needs.

Meanwhile, Jeff Bezos makes $219M per day and pays shit in taxes while people like you think the answer is "just stop relying on the gov't".

There is a very basic and fundamental problem: the elitist rich people in the US have a hugely disproportionate share of wealth compared to the average American.

The answer isn't to "just work harder" or "find a new job". The economy is fundamentally broken and skewed against the average person... who by the way are doing the majority of work to line the pockets of those ultra rich folks.

Other countries have government funded health care, pay less for it, and have better outcomes. These are literal facts, but go on and keep supporting an objectively horrible system
