This isn't much, but I was speaking in more general terms of "what if someone permanently decides to stop work."
- Raphmedia 8y ago> But how much farther have we really come in 2018? We have more things, but if you stop working, you will starve or go ill just as quickly as an Irish laborer in 1850. In the province of Canada that I live in, you get $650 - $800 a month as a single adult if you stop working and enter the system. You are allowed to work on the side and gain up to $200 extra a month. If you managed to get in the social housing program, you also get housing that is capped at 25% of your income along with free electricity and water. Some also offer internet and tv at a reduced price. For reference, my 4 rooms apartment's rent is 675$/month.
