I'll get hate here (this instance/community) but I don't give a fuck.

There's more than one way to skin a cat. I don't care if it's welfare capitalism, UBI, socialism or fucking whatever. SOMEONE needs to do SOMETHING to give people that work less profitable/high class/whatever jobs a decent humane life.

Everyone's work is important, otherwise it wouldn't be done. And they deserve to live a decent life.

Does that mean they go on intercontiental holidays to 5 star hotels? No. Does that mean they can afford food, heat, shelter and the ability to start a family? Yes.

Wait. Why would that get hate here?

Pretty sure it's just a way to bait more upvotes.
