The question "should basic needs be dependant on moral behavior" is not really a very good question, but I suppose the answer is yes. For Howard's situation, a perfect world would have some way of looking into the future and learning that he would have gone in a downward spiral from goodwill of others. Becasue we don't have that ability, our best judgement on who should receive or not receive benefits come from our morals.
This also is why churches giving gifts to the needy is so much better than government giving welfare. The government sees everyone (with no past crime, etc) as someone who could receive welfare, just a number and an expense, while churches and local communities judge the individual and his purpose.
Howard found a really shitty church that should have instantly realized Howard was incapable of believing or enjoying the benefits the church provided.

It is his homework, yes @Jeb

Howard should see a therapist for his hatred of people giving him food

Lol

That being said you are an adult and you shouldn’t abuse drugs while on welfare

This is true^

Lol

What's with this quintupling down on the travel ban?

Hasn't the Supreme Court just said, "It's legal; deal with it?"

@bam That was with one particular version of it. Now there's a new version, so it can get blocked

The Supreme Court didn't even say if it's constitutional or not, they just dropped the case because Trump pushed a new version out, so the current SC case wasn't even needed.

oh

It is surprisingly hard to get that information from any "news" source

Not really

It just takes a few seconds of looking into an article besides reading the headline

Thank you for the clarification. <:FeelsComfyMan:356316472240373760>

does Bernie enjoy being used to wipe the floor?

Just found out about this '#MeToo' bullshit

I don't know what's more revolting, that Hollywood are trying to deflect blame from the Weinstein scandal, or that they're trying to take advantage of this and turn it into a social justice movement

Hollywood is a cesspool

They literally can't be allowed to keep getting away with this

God is smiting CA every year

Hes trying

Trump should say something about them

We were so fucking close to cracking that shit wide open at long last, but all that's going to happen is Weinstein does a stint in rehab, and becomes the next Roman Polanski

And Joe public falls for their propaganda every time. "Hollywood culture isn't the problem! All men are just predators!"

Even got male actors who got molested are going out of their way to say the movement isn't about them, but about *showing solidarity with women*

Damn retards

Fuck Hollywood ISIS should blow it up tbh

Even ISIS isn't dumb enough to attack L.A

There's literally nothing they could do to make that city even shittier

@everyone apologies for the ping but this is actually important. the FCC is expected to announce a vote to abolish Net Neutality on November 22(The day before Thanksgiving). Once they announce the vote you will no longer be able to make a vote to them in support of it. For those that are unaware Net Neutrality is the principle that ALL data should be treated equally, say being able to go on the wiki or browsing Youtube, that is all protected by Net Neutrality, however if it were to be abolish your ISP(Internet service provider) will be able to charge extra to access those sites, charge fast lanes or worse have the site be BLOCKED by them.
We can still prevent this by simply calling your state members of congress by going to https://www.battleforthenet.com/. Once you put in your phone number and your zip code, depending on your member of congress you will be ask to send them a voicemail(This is where you need to tell them why you support Net Neutrality, keep it short and respectful). When you are done with your message press (*) to go straight to your next member. This will only take not even five minutes to do. Feel free to also tell your family and friends about the issue. Remember we have till November 22 to vote, but the sooner the better.
