Yes let's blame poor people. You realise we don't have this problem in countries with even larger welfare systems because our police aren't so heavily militarised and given free reign with no consequences?
- crusso 12y agoWhere did I blame poor people? Why do discussions like this on HN have to be so twisted and toxic? If anything, I would blame the political elitist class that uses shiny beads to buy power and then perpetuates the misery of their constituents by not giving them a good education and the means to improve their lot.
- k-mcgrady 12y agoIt reads to me like a complaint about wards of the state but I may have misunderstood.
- tolkienfanatic 12y agoI think it was meant to be a complaint about the political party that consistently keeps certain demographics beholden to them with policies that are made in the guise of "helping".
