The thing that I find odd is the strange rules of the government assistance program. If someone works hard all their life and retires after paying off their house and car, then has some unexpected financial problem such as a major medical catastrophe, and they dare go ask for some temporary help, the government agencies won't even talk to them unless they sell all, making them dependent on assistance for life instead of just a short time.
BUT if someone has nothing because they can't be bothered to work, the same agency will give them a car and a home.
