The American welfare system is byzantine, unfair, corrupt, and ineffective. That’s the dystopia part.
It’s awesome that good people do good things to fix the problems caused by a dystopian system. But if we weren’t living in a dystopia the system wouldn’t be so bad in the first place.
Sorry it took me a week to get back to this, because I really did want to discuss it. The American welfare system is all the things you mentioned and worse. In conservative states, they actively make things harder on poor people to live, and then make it harder for poor people to vote these knobs out of office.
So yeah, I understand that the cruelty is the point. Then the Republican Party marches some Uncle Tom up on the dais to give a speach about some billionaire shitbird that pretends to care about poor people of any color. The fact that someone in a trailer park in the south thinks that Trump cares about them is really sad to me.
The fact that our state elected JD “I fuck couches and can’t order donuts” Vance as an actual senator in this state because Peter Thiel propped him up with an endless supply of money is embarrassing enough, but then this hillbilly elegy moron just keeps opening his mouth and makes Dan Quayle look like a Rhodes scholar by comparison.
It’s all really tiring, and I guess that’s what they’re going for. But I’ll be god damned if I leave this shithole state a worse place than I found it. I’m not going away until we unfuck our gerrymandered state like Michigan managed to unfuck theirs.

Welfare for people in need has to be as difficult and painful as possible. Corporate handouts don’t need any of that. /s
Nah, this is just good people doing good things for other people in need.
I can actually see how you might think it’s a boring dystopia, but this is just how we live where I’m from.
