They’re using the old “teach a man to fish” bullshit argument, making me questions if they’re over the age of 50 because I hear that shit all the time from that age group. We aren’t given “freebies” at all in Guatemala. NO universal healthcare and a barebones welfare program. Our poverty rates have been pretty bad even for the region. If we’re getting free shit all the time then I’d love to know where I can get some.
