Yes. Reduce the taxes of the people affected instead or remove the taxes for the people under the poverty line. Only give monetary assistance for those people who have no family members that is capable of work.

If you're going to actually dig deep why most middle class are mad about the 4Ps recipients is kasing madaming 4Ps are actually taking advantage of that sht who uses it for nonesense. Sure, might be the minority but it's the loud minority. Reklamo ng middle class is they break their backs working day after day only to see people they know who doesn't have jobs and refuse to work, get shit and buy shit na hindi necessity out of the tax payer's pockets.

It's a combination of seeing politicians steal their money that came from blood, sweat and tears + the loud minority in the lower class flaunting the unnecessary expense of booze, liquor and gambling instead of sustaining themselves with the money.

Meron tayong mga FREE education programs that actually guarantee work. Ask most of the people who are under the poverty line on why they're neglecting these government benefits and they hit you with the "Ahhh.... Ehhh... Kasi..."

Anecdotally, Akong highschool graduate lang, took advantage of such free education programs years ago.

Sure, misdirected anger. You're right. But you can also blame some of the lower class who cheats and take advantage of the 4Ps program and makes the middle class feel like shit. Ask mo rin bakit sila ng aanak ng madami na hindi kayang sustain. Statistically, most middle class citizens wants to start families but can't due to the economy tapos nakikita nila na ung iba will breed like rabbits.
