TLHLIM

.Charles Dickens wrote on the effects of poverty
In like the 19th century.

The French Revolution should be another go to when trying to understand the upshot of poverty.
Dont even have to back that far, Chile 2020, Venezuala,Cuba pre revolution.

Or literature.

That should keep you busy

I think the Seattle idea is a worthy social experiment.
Why wouldn't you ?

Sociology tells us poverty is the main gateway to addiction
was that why you got a B+ rather than an A ?

We provide for our underprivileged MUCH more than those societies no? Maybe provide some parallels so we dolts can connect the dots to sociology 101.
 
I am guessing there is quite a bit more to the initiative than the blanket you suggest.

I hate to have to keep going back to TV shows and films but in The Wire Season 4 I think.

I maintain that on it's face it is a worthy social experiment.

Why punish people for poverty and the ensuing addiction ?

I maintain the victims of the crimes that would go unpunished disagree with you.
 
Perhaps "provide" is the wrong word ?

There really are no parallels that I know of. This seems (to me) a new approach

If Seattle wants to take this on --- we will see how it works
 
I maintain the victims of the crimes that would go unpunished disagree with you.

you brought this up, and like I said, there has to be more to it. Let's assume they have thought this through. Including your scenario

Why not since you brought it up, you research it a bit and tell us what you find.
Like I said, on its face ---

You might be right, but, I like the forward thinking solution instead of the cradle to prison railroad people, citizens, are finding themselves

Wonder if Harlan County, Kentucky or Grady County, Georgia aren't paying attention what happens

Talk about wasted votes. Most of those people are dead.


Visited at least 2 of their final resting places. Hell, seen one of their bodies lol
 
During a press conference Friday, the Canadian prime minister was asked what he thought about the right to depict Muhammed in relation to the recent public violence in France.

The prime minister answered that he would “always defend freedom of expression.” He then added: “But freedom of expression is not without limits. You can’t, for example, shout ‘fire’ in a crowded movie theatre; there are always limits. In a pluralistic, diverse and respectful society like ours, we must be aware of the impact of our words and actions on others, especially those communities and populations that still experience a great deal of discrimination.”

Justin Trudeau explained further how speech and even facts can hurt people.

“It is a matter of respect, not to seek to dehumanize or deliberately hurt. There is always an extremely important debate, a sensitive debate to have about possible exceptions on issues where one does not want to hurt, but often the intention is less important and the fact can still hurt, so in a society based on respect for others and listening and learning, let’s have these complex conversations responsibly.”

Justin Trudeau also condemned the attacks saying: “these terrorists, these murderers, do not represent any religion”

Shouting “fire” in a crowded theater and publishing a cartoon in a newspaper are not analogous. But at least Trudeau wiped off the blackface before lecturing us on responsible freedom of expression.

True. I prefer Macron's defense of blasphemy. Free speech isn't an absolute but it should be very high in our ranking of values to uphold.
