🤣

thats bullshit. If the single mom could go out and make enough to comfortably take care of her kids with one job instead of two or 3, maybe she’d be able to do a better job parenting. Maybe she wouldnt just say fuck it and start smoking crack. Maybe this, maybe that. But there’s no doubt that if people in the lower and middle class could make a half-decent living working 40 hours at a low-skill job then the temptation for crime would be MUCH MUCH LESS.
