          I think you may be confusing “getting money from the government” and “taking money from the government.”

          See also: “Receiving contracts from the government for work that will not be completed.”

          Fair, I was more thinking in a way of “things that are trashy when you’re poor and amazing when you’re rich”

          Where i am from if you get the universal basic income (there are some requirements to get, some of them is not having a work/having a very very low paycheck which is like having no work) , many people will roast you “aah! You jobless that rob us of money!!!” while if the rich get the money (or even when politicians get money, eg: their salary is way too high and they also rob it) they will be chill
