Would you rather pay for someone to get a basic education, or pay to cover all the things they can’t afford because of student loan debt? Or pay to bring in workers abroad because employers can’t find qualified applicants here?
Would you rather pay for someone to get a little bit of help with food, or pay to jail them when they get desperate enough to resort to stealing?
