    I used to work in contract law at an insurance company (not a lawyer), and I was paid well to do highly specialized work. I now work behind the counter at a bakery and I get to help people feed their families. I unquestionably provide more actual value to the world through my current job than my previous one.

      Id agree with you there! But youre actively bettering the community and improving quality of life, you deserve to have a comfortable living situation for that. You can’t just give houses and money to lazy or addicted people, that doesnt solve the issue is what im saying.
