Igy, this is the exchange that i find offensive, in which you indicate that food bank recipients are assumed to be substance abusers, frivolous, and making poor financial decisions and pretty ,ch are unworthy of being helped. And please note that your second post indicated it was in response to George Corwin.

Our local grocery store hits you up for a donation to the food bank on every sale. I generally feel for these people, but at the same time they are buying lottery tickets, CBD oil, cigarettes, booze, while getting a tattoo. They or their kids want the government to pay for their private college student loans.
WTF?!

Average expenditure for cable, internet, and cell phone is $300/month. Over 50% of Americans do not have savings to cover a $500 emergency expense. Wasting money on tattoos, lottery tickets, booze, drugs of various types, including unnecessary medications like opioids, are even greater financial moral hazards. More effort should be directed to elementary financial education rather than recycling programs that have really not advanced much in the last two decades.
