(Anonymous) 2018-03-25 01:37 am (UTC)(link)Especially when there aren't enough jobs paying a living wage for people who are qualified for them, able bodied and able minded and live in places where there actually are opportunities.
And often, when people say "cut them off from the safety net and they'll suddenly get it together" they are the same people who are denying (or support the ones who deny) those people with no safety net any opening or opportunity to get back on their feet.
Person With No Safety Net: Please, I need a job, any job. Just point me at work and I'll do it.
Person Who Could've Helped: People can't just have jobs because they want them. We can't just go around giving people jobs, they have to earn them. Why don't you make something and sell it if you're that desperate?
Person With No Safety Net: Okay. Does anyone want to buy this thing I made?
Person Who Could've Helped: Like, why don't you get a real job and stop trying to trick people into giving you money? You're so lazy and I won't enable it.

(Anonymous) 2018-03-25 01:58 am (UTC)(link)Really they try to mental-gymnastics their way to ANY justification that not helping someone in need was the morally right choice.
Because otherwise they'd feel bad. And they can't have that now can they?
