Why are we told not to give cash to the homeless but forced to fund wasteful government spending?

[FunkyMonkee]

I'll, once again, re--post my question here THE WAY I FUCKING WROTE IT... Why are we told not to give money to the homeless because we don't know what they're gonna spend it on but, we're forced to give it to government... and we have NO CLUE the kind of bizarre shit THEY'RE gonna spend it on!! Measuring mouse dicks!! Shooting videos of flies fucking!! Learning how to speak Koala!!
Especially since there's NO LAW that says you HAVE to pay taxes!!

By the way, the way GAG has it re-written before I added the actual question, they had it listed as SEXUALITY!! THERE WAS NOTHING SEXUAL ABOUT THE QUESTION!!! Even AFTER I changed it to society and politics, they changed it back to sexuality!! GAG has gone to hell!! No WONDER nobody comes here, anymore!!

If AI is the wave of our future society and our jobs, we're all in trouble!!

Even the AI BOT that answers the phone at Walmart is stupid! She asks what the reason is that I called Customer Care. So I give my reason and all she keeps saying is "I'm sorry. Could you please repeat that"? I say No! Just to mess with her! 😂

This is America 🇺🇸 and we can give our money to whomever we want to. I give cash to homeless people and I also buy food and something to drink and take it to them.

I don't think that a lot of people are aware that we don't have to pay taxes, but we are taught that Uncle Sam will come after us if we don't.

And you are 💯 % correct that the American government spends those tax dollars for the most idiotic things.

Elon Musk busted the USAID and told America what foolish, insane things that tax dollars were being spent on. It's unbelievable what they spent money on. They should be put in prison for doing that!! The receiving end of people probably said things like "Can you believe they actually gave us money to find out what the correct way is to crack open an egg"? All white laughing together. Hehehe 🤣 🤣

Cheers to you bro! Miss you!

Or, you could make up a response to confuse her.
"Can you repeat that?"
Sure, I said, I need to dog face to the banana patch.
"Can you repeat that?"
Sure, I said, Never mind the furthermore, the plea is self-defense.
"Can you repeat that?"
Sure, if knees bent the other way, what would a chair look like?

I used to work graveyard at a 7-11 so, the Dunkin Donut guy would come in around 4:00 a. m. and change the donuts and give me the day-olds. I'd either eat them myself, give them to birds or offer them to homeless people on the way home from work at 7:00 a. m. Each time I offered them, they'd refuse me! I guess they aren't very hungry if they refuse free food!!

True! That's partly why I'm trying to educate them of the facts!

I've found, the best way to crack eggs is to do it on a flat surface. Hold it in your and give it a sharp yet not full blow onto the counter top and it'll come right open.

Thanks!! I miss a number of people here. Well, it's been pretty dead here the past few months so, hardly any point in coming here. Also, because of the high winds we had this past weekend, it killed my internet connection until this past Tues.!!

[sage2021]

Your suggestions for what I say to the AI BOT were comical.

Perhaps our government should be paying you for giving the perfect way to crack open an egg! 🥚🍳 We don't need no stinking research on the subject but if our insane Democratic government believes there should be a study done.

They must be on some highly hallucinogenic drugs when making these decisions. 🤪

[FunkyMonkee]

Thank you!
I'm teaching a college course on it. Egg Cracking 501. BYOHS (Bring your own hazmat suit.) Another good way is the just use the Sledge-O-Matic. Cracks AND scrambles in one blow!!
The problem is, they aren't sharing any of those drugs with the rest of us!!

There are many social and cultural issues in giving sash to homeless persons or baggers. Giving cash to them is discouraged because it can enable addiction, prolong street life, encourage them for not working or using their skills, and fund organized begging gangs. It is now recommended in many parts of the world to donate through charities, NGOs or provide job to ensure assistance and addresses long-term needs like addiction recovery and secure housing, rather than immediate, potentially harmful consumption. A primary concern is that cash directly supports, rather than reduces, addiction, as money may be used for drugs or alcohol or gambling. Giving money in small amounts by many people usually create a dangerous cycle of dependence on passersby, preventing individuals from seeking help from specialized services that offer job, housing and rehab. Most street begging in religious places is linked to criminal gangs or syndicates. Cash can, in many instances, feed into these structures rather than helping the individual in need. Supporting government recognized charitable trusts or organizations and NGOs allows for a more structured, effective approach to solving homelessness, offering them suitable job, food, shelter, and rehabilitation services. Instead of cash, offering help through local, specialized charities can offer tangible support without social or cultural risks.

[FunkyMonkee]

But, at least you KNOW what they're using it for! And, at some point, they might actually use some of it for food or something like a toothbrush
When we give it to government, we have no idea that kind of stupid bullshit they're gonna spend it on!

[Sangita93]

There are many options other than Government - Public charity trusts, NGOs, Local Social groups, and many offer tax benefits too.

[Wodens_Apprentice]

Think of it this way, the homeless need those drugs more than the government needs your money. All western governments right now should crash & burn.

[Cidknee]

Because they can do so. They have a huge number of armed enforcers and if they don't kill you they'll jail ya!

Here's the trailer for the movie.

Eeh, there's not a an awful lot I can do about it so fuck it.

[AngryCarl3]

No law? Have you tried that line on the IRS?

[FunkyMonkee]

Not yet but several, including ex-IRS employees, have and haven't paid taxes since. It says in the Constitution that we are to pay taxes VOLUNTARILY!!
Next time you're on YT, look up the Aaron Russo movie, "America: Freedom To Fascism".

Homeless rely on mercy. Government relies on power.

[beefcakebradybatson]

America overall lacks a moral compass.
