Quote:Because, amongst the extremely poor, there certainly aren't any who are illiterate, innumerate, homeless, crazy, economically clueless, or just plain disorganized.We can't make them literate, smarter, saner, or more organized. Life is tough. If you want to sponsor door to door spoon feeding, then you can do that on your own dime. In the current system, if you want money back you need to file an income tax form. What's the difference? Issue them an ID card then that they can show to skip the taxes.
Bureaucracy comes down very hard on the marginalized.
