You are so right - I have spent years with people whose parents never got a chance to “mature” themselves. One holiday all the males sitting at the table started talking about the # of times they had been arrested. I came from an entirely different background. My family is Republican. After that dinner, I started warning my Republican family that those “safety nets” were put in place for a reason. It was to protect the them from people like the ones I was with at that holiday dinner. All the men at that table were working or looking for jobs. But the jobs they could get were low wage. The “safety net” was enough to keep them from having to “supplement” their income. Those have nots WILL get what they need to live. They are survivors. It’s why I believe that the MAGA’s are trying to undermine the United States and cause CHAOS as an internal attack. Keep squeezing the most desperate and crime goes up. Then Republicans who caused the problem with “entitlement cuts” - blame Democrats for the increased crime. I don’t remember the term for that stunt but there is a name for it.
Your perspicacity is only exceeded by your writing skills. There are studies that show the incidence in crime decreasing in NY 15-20 yrs after Roe in 1972. Unwanted, abused and food insecure kids are increased risk of criminal behavior, just like the people at that holiday dinner.
"Projection," maybe: Note that Trump is now "projecting" that there will never be another election if Trump loses, when in fact Trump is the guy who plans on being forever president. The old saying "biting the hand that feeds you" also comes to mind in response to your post. Those guys in your family are probably getting paid more for even low-level jobs under Biden; have they noticed?
