Protests erupt in Italy over cuts to poverty relief scheme
If you're gonna protest, overthrow the damn government. You know they aren't going to go back on it.
Do you ever despair at the apparent lack of regard for the "social contract" by so many?
It's a bit of confirmation bias. Once something "big" happens to you, you start seeing little things that you'd before just write off.
But a part of it is the increase in homeless people. Many of them, thanks to mental illness and drug addiction, can't follow a social contract.
Of course, naturally, they get left on the street where they ruin everyone else's day instead of being forced into an area where they can exhaust themselves out, and get their illnesses treated.
Because that would cost too much money, of course, as if letting those people lose their grip on reality and break shit doesn't already cost money.
