>>2298975Society can't tell the difference between a truly useless person and a currently useless person all the time. So we keep both alive because it doesn't cost us that much on a relative basis and some might become useful. Also, it keeps people happy with the state to know that their deadbeat brother, whom they love, won't get executed in the street for making a McChicken incorrectly.
So gratz on not living a century ago I guess.
