Unfortunately a lot of people are brainwashed into the open handout system instead putting in the work. Sorry. No one gets a free ride.

And for goodness sake people if your are so poor you can’t afford food... please don’t have children. If you can’t support a family... don’t have one. Take care of yourself!
