How the fuck is that supposed to fix anything? It's easily cheaper for the state to pay for their lunch.
Homeless people turn into cheap prison labor super easy. And foster kids become homeless so fast.
Well... Fast after they're adults. But if they're 8 years old, I wouldn't call a decade fast.
Besides the point though. You're correct, ruining people's lives is advantageous to them. Convenient scape goat for everything sucks, free labour
Chritians also love "adopting"/occasionally accidentally kidnapping the children they've helped to render desperate. The Mormons are big on this and have a whole complex system built around it. Don't take my word for it, here's a highlighted portion from a Mormon bishop's handbook:
Add that to the mile long list as to why the Mormons are a bunch of profligates deserving of butchering. Missouri was right to try to exterminate the Mormons.
I left Utah a year ago after 6 years there. I understand your anger all too well. I wish it weren't so God-damned beautiful there.
Well if it makes it any worse I ain't from Utah, I'm from the Inland Empire here in SoCal. I just think the Mormon church is probably the most destructively influencial group of the last two centuries here in the Western US. Though I do like at least one (dead) Mormon, that being John Moses Browning.
But then someone might get some benefit from their tax dollars!
