My mom also worked 3 jobs at one point, started a cleaning business she worked herself, doing closer to 100 hours a week. She than got a job at a law firm, became a legal secretary, still working 80+ Hours a week and eventually was personal secretary to one of the lawyers and was making 90k a year in the early to mid 90’s. She worked hard, didn’t whine and complain and made her life better. I’m not a disciple of Jesus so don’t share his socialist outlook.
Maybe I’m lacking in compassion but she’s already living a pretty good life, gets free childcare (amongst many other things) sounds like she’s working about 15-20 hours a week, maybe. With all her spare time she could be doing many things to improve her life but just whines she doesn’t get enough free stuff. It’s not mine or any other hard working persons problem she a kid before she even owned a car, and no i don’t care if she goes hungry due to her life choices (which she definitely isn’t). I don’t feel any responsibility to feed her child either nor do I think it helps society at all. What kind of example does this set for her kid? Mommy is lazy but we still have Coca Cola in the fridge. She buys microwave meals instead of actually cooking meals and eating the leftovers for a few days and saving money whilst also eating healthier food. She’s lazy and that’s that.

How does adding 20 million to the homeless rolls serve society? Do you think you would be safe if suddenly financial assistance was cut to the poorest? You would probably spend most of your income defending your property against those who have nothing else to lose.

So I should support them out of fear?? That the most ridiculous argument I’ve heard so far, pay them for being irresponsible or they’ll rob you!

What do you think would happen to society of you cut off food and housing assistance to the poor? Do you honestly believe some Libertarian Utopia would emerge? Or would it be Mad Max, where no one gives a fuck?

Chicago, Detroit, Camden, etc, etc., are already Mad Max. Throwing more money at them doesn't help.
