It’s almost as if they want poor people to have a decent quality of life or something

Oh no, how awful that us on the left prefer that our taxes are spent on ensuring a better quality of life for people than funding a military industrial complex or lining the pockets of people that are already wealthy beyond imagination.

Real talk here lads.  I am a disabled person living in Scotland and if it hadn’t been for our empathetic HUMANE government I would be dead.  Pure and simple.  I need to take 4 pills a day to survive.  Now if I was paying for this I would be fucked, but my free prescriptions mean I can refill these when I need to and that means I haven’t killed myself yet.  Benefits are not a comfortable way to live, no sir, but with these things the govt provides for free I at least feel like they don’t actively want me to die.  I am short sighted, free sight tests and a glasses voucher means I’m not going hungry to afford essential eye care. I have a bus pass as well - disabled people are given them too in Scotland - and it allows me to go and see my family or friends or get to hospital and psychiatry appointments without worrying constantly about how I will pay for transport.  These things help me maintain some form of independence and that is worth more than gold.  So yeah the author of that paragraph in the image?  I honestly hope love for anyone who writes such freaking SHITE as this to be forced to live a month in the life of someone like me. My life is awful, but the left is keeping me alive.

And whom is paying for this, and why do you diserve it?

the taxpayers i would assume. you see, when countries dont spend 57% of the money on military for imperialistic purposes, there isa lot of money that can be spent on the welfare of the people. Not to mention the price drugs and medical help in america is not how much it actually costs. Capitalism has jacked up the price to live so big companies can profit off of suffering.
