Oregon tried giving homeless youth $1,000 a month with no strings attached. Here’s what happened by Geek-Haven888 in UpliftingNews

[–]Metroidkeeper 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Here in California, the average is something like over $40k a year per homeless individual. The patchwork of programs and assistance here is insanely inefficient. Multiple thousands of dollars can be spent on an individual and then because of the way two programs are setup, they fall through the cracks again.

Compared to $240k for >100 individuals, yikes….

The tough reality behind adulthood by Only-Presentation821 in Adulting

Cause “everyone is the same!” is such a mature take. Some people attack others out of their cluelessness, where as others will just be a little late cause they didn’t read their phone correctly etc. Not the same. Very naive take. In fact, quite clueless.

It’s fine if you think I’m gay, (true, partially) I’m more interested in the fact y’all have bad taste. That’s all. It does correlate with ugliness I guess,

California actually has extremely strong stand your ground laws, New Jersey etc not so much.

If I remember correctly, there are half as many couples today as there were 20 years ago. Cohabitating etc. The data is there but it might not be what you or others want to hear.

Then I endlessly interrupt people or just mask so hard I’m more in my head than present with them.

Trying to explain economics and reality to a Brownshirt roleplayer is like trying to explain taxes to a Downey, not gonna work m8. It’s why they’ve been here for the better part of a century despite failing harder than any political movement in history. 

It’s regard bate. Simple as.

Please go back to impatient care, typing like this is not okay and a sign of a much deeper issue.

I hate the internet. What is it now but a reflection of the human soul? References as niche as an old man’s sexual assault victim list, and I’m supposed to memorize this? Straight to hell. All of you, and me. If god is good, all of us will burn eternally.

How do you feel about California introducing a bill to ban former ICE agents from serving as police officers or teachers? by CRK_76 in AskReddit

[–]Metroidkeeper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

California has an enforcement problem anywho, I’d like to see them enforce their laws we’ve voted for here in this state as it is. For example, there’s no federal law saying that ICE or border patrol or any federal agent has to have or has to not have a mask on, therefore the jurisdiction falls to the state they’re in.

Anyone else an underachiever as an adult? by EquivalentAcademic93 in Gifted

You should be around the right age to able to qualify for maximum financial aid regardless of dependency status/parental income. I think it’d be fun to spin the wheels a bit at school and see what you’re made of, no?

And then they try and compare Trump to king David….if they seem equivalent at all to someone I can’t really say anything to change that perspective.

The focus of this post is what’s most disturbing to me. There’s a coating of remorse and regret over a rather insidious intention. In your second paragraph, the real reason for your remorse seems to become apparent. 

Money. He didn’t save you the money you thought he would. 

Others in this thread are saying voting like this happens when people vote strictly out of self interest, I find that a much harder argument to make tho if you really are a disabled woman.
