If you say something like, “So many people abuse the welfare system because the government makes it too easy to get!”

What that tells me is you have never once in your life had to even THINK about applying for a welfare program.

Accurate information is easy enough to access in this day and age, but I’m sure it makes you feel better to believe poor people are just ✨greedy✨
