Since this is just a CC I'll just keep it light

-my mom has always been on welfare and hasn't had a job
-she has plantar fasciitis or some shit that makes her not be able to work.
-she can still work at a desk
-been trying to get disability for a while
-meanwhile wasted probably 5 years of her life complaining about this shit
-no post secondary education
-no job
-no experience

My mom is pretty much scum in my eyes, not gonna lie. She's probably a good example of a person who needs to be kicked off of the system and pushed face first into the harsh reality of unemployment. I know I have been living a kind life due to tax payers' money here in Canada (which seems pretty damn similar in some ways to how USA's welfare works) but I have always had this thought that if my mom was just forced into shit she would've been able to provide for her family better.

Instead she sits and whines about how she hasn't been able to get a job, isn't successful and how she was meant to do awesome things or something. I don't even know anymore what her current fad is when it comes to griping about her unemployed state. All I know is that I live(d) a sad life under her care, and it's a wonder how I am even still here.

tl;dr the system is actually spoon feeding people in my view, and it's actually damaging to the people who are on it.
