    My point was that they can work, some of them have under the table jobs to begin with and they are abusing the system. Ss will occasionally audit and ask for random bank statements anyway. Not my business but it is the government’s if the money comes from them (technically we who work and pay into it anyway). They don’t give the money to pay for weed they give it to support you-- barely.

    Seems about equal to Social security disability but, SS is worse because they don’t really tailor your payments to your housing expenses and needs. If they did, the government might even save money. I know people around me that just use most of their check for weed. If it was guaranteed to only cover your bills with a smaller spending allowance and they asked for monthly bank records to prove you were using government money wisely, there would be less freeloaders and more reserve for those who retire and have paid into it. More people who proved they could work, or who abused the system would be called out and forced to work, and those with true disabilities could stay on it.














  • Seems like a sociopathic trait. To try and get simulated attention for themselves. Nevertheless, it might work better for them the other way around. Using a smaller community on Lemmy as a ‘test’ environment and then plagiarizing a comment to get Reddit Karma. Or a post for that matter. I am pretty sure that there are people that might do this. There probably is a lot of mods on Lemmy that might tip off mods on Reddit for this very reason.

    I will admit, if I need help for an answer to a question someone is asking, I DO Google and in those results there, which are often reddit, find someone who has already asked and answered said question, so I will just paraphrase them lol.

    Not jokes but useful things and TOMT searches. Why reinvent the wheel?
