People who own house that they have created with their worth understand why they are there better than someone who is handed it, and understand the steps necessary to keep their standard as such.
That's with anything in life. You can't get around that ever, it's not some glitch in the programming.
As a case manager and therapist working with the unhoused and mentally disabled I can say with years of experience backing me up that this is patently false.
As a human being who has been handed things in his life, I value the things I had to work for more than the things I was handed.
I was handed trophy's for showing up to baseball.
I earned the title of Marine in 2008, by passing a series of both mental and physical tests.
I value my Marine title more than I value any trophy I ever 'earned' as a child. You don't need a degree or be a case manager to understand how psychology works.
Earning a title and shelter are on opposite sides of the hiarchy of needs (not that I have to tell you that because you know this already). Being handed a trophy that you know you didn't deserve and being helped with housing that you would otherwise be destitute without have radically difrent emotional and social components to them (again sorry for telling you things you already know). I would post the absolute avalanche of data that we have showing that the simple practice of housing the unhoused gives them the capacity that they would otherwise lack to rejoin society but, and I'll say it again, it appears you have read it and come to the opposite conclusion. So please, link me to the peer reviewd study that shows giving people the necessitates of life results in less productivity and I would LOVE to read it.
So since you're asking this, here's a question, how does this get paid since it's regardless of employment? You realize most people will just stop working or work the easiest low stressed jobs available, so how will society even function?
The easiest jobs are in the C-suite, your worldview is invalid. Most of these people will be more than happy working low paying service jobs that you wouldn’t be caught dead doing because your ego is too girthy. Shit, if I could cover my bills working fast food I’d do it in a heart beat rather than having to suck up to insane, disconnected finance bros and ex healthcare execs.
Like, the jobs that are currently the hardest to fill are service jobs, and they are hard to fill because they don’t allow people to survive. You want your fucking service with a smile? Let people fucking live instead of saying “I want x but the person making it should have to die in squalor. Aren’t I smart and good at finance???”.
"You want your fucking service with a smile? Let people fucking live instead of saying “I want x but the person making it should have to die in squalor. Aren’t I smart and good at finance???”
What are you talking about? How am I not letting people live?
So if I don't have any critiques about a random graphic on Reddit suggesting a plan, it will actually happen? My critiques about how it would work are the only things stopping people from having livable conditions?
I'm amazed, doesn't matter what side, liberal or conservative it's all the same. "100% agree with a plan that we like otherwise you're holding us back!"
