I totally understand where you're coming from - I volunteer at a local food bank as part of my job here in the US, and upon talking to a lot of them, who are able bodied, literally refuse to work and expect handouts. Here's the kicker - they don't trust the government (who does nowadays?), but expect the government to keep giving them money, housing and everything else. After a few years of this, I've come to realise that it's not about helping them anymore, it's the fact that they walk in like it's a grocery store, demand certain foods, demand different size/colours of clothes like we're a department store, and start threatening you if you don't have what they ask for. As much as I love to help people get back on their feet, not all of them actually want help. They choose to be homeless, hungry and expect everyone around them to help them with what they want, which is money for more drugs for a lot of them. The retired couple I rent from used to work for government, and the guy told me that the statistics in 2019 for the 2018 year was that only 51% of people in the US are working, and that leaves the rest who aren't. Take away under 18s, health issues and can't work physically or mentally, and retired people, you're still looking at around 41-2% of people who literally refuse to work. And this was in 2018, and he told me it's only going to get worse.
