People who are disabled, poor or on fixed incomes should be allowed nice things.

Society acts as though anyone receiving assistance should be forced to make do with the bare minimum ALL the time.

It’s suffering as a policy choice.

It’s cruel and unnecessary.

@broadwaybabyto Dutch law does not allow parents to gift groceries to children if these children live on social security.
If they do, the social security income can be demanded back (which of course nobody can do because you need every fucking cent of it to survive).
Otherwise, the Netherlands is known as a tax haven (which the government denies). Companies can get away with just about anything.

@edgeofeurope @broadwaybabyto Calvinist mentality in an otherwise fairly liberal society. Strange.
