Rollercoaster: Your disgusting behavior stems from deep psychological issues and your arrest is what set the chains in motion to get mental help. You come out a better person.
I had sm vague inspiration for a meme inspired by this thought actually
Its a you get/i receive meme with a mentally ill homeless guy
We receive mild crime and aggression. They receive food and a temporary roof in jail.
With all the taxes spend on hostile architecture, emptying and clean frequently occupied places general police costs youd think it be cheaper and safer to just help humans in need whenever they need.
The succes is that we are trying to be a responsible society making sure that people are treated in a human way with there most basic needs met instead of normalizing shitting the homeless.
I very much do agree on your second point though, building a society is hard and complicated and its near impossible for a citizen to overview all the dynamics to how their taxes benefit all or are being misused.
I do think we should try to do better though. Whats the point of organized society if not trying to improve standards and quality of life for all. Maybe it takes ubi for people to stop worrying about money and more about people, maybe we find an entirely different solution but we have to do something.
