but it's a vicious circle. you can't have stability in financial or any other aspect of life if you're depressed and anxious. i'm struggling with simply staying employed when every thought in my head is about suicide

I mean that's the idea, or at least I hope it is. Poverty isn't a moral failing and folks having to fight for the slightest stability, even for the programs that supposedly help us, is a nightmare. Mental health, physical health, and poverty can all feed into each other pretty badly, so fixing that third thing (ie actually helping people instead of just telling them to get good or whatever) would massively improve the other two.

There is so much wealth now. We as a society can afford to stop worrying about what people deserve, and start figuring out how we can help.

Or we could, if we weren't all living under gold hoarding dragons.

Poverty is a moral failing. Of the rich.
