So what's wrong with helping people? Junky or no junky!  |
There's nothing wrong with helping the needy.
That's why we created the Welfare State, some years after the Great Depression had ended.
Giving money, to someone saying they need money to pay a bill, then going outside to score drugs, as I've seen with my own eyes, helps no one.
Not the user, and certainly not the town.
Any criticism of the ex-nun's 'good works' risks a holy contract being taken out on you.
Be warned.
Luckily I'm already doomed.
