If someone doesn’t have that little money for food then they have real budget issues to work out. I’m not saying it doesn’t happen but finding a solution to that for them is far better than turning to thieving or rioting

Moving is different for everyone but obviously it can be done. Look at the people trying to come here from South America with nothing but the clothes on their back. They’re not angry thieves or rioters, they’re not mad at corporations or rich people or anything else, they just want an opportunity to work and live a modest life and they’re leaving everything behind for the chance at it

Here in America you probably have a car already, some basic essentials and maybe some money to your name. That’s more than those migrants have so I know it’s possible. My grandparents immigrated to Canada from Austria to flee the war, built their own farm by hand and scratched out a living. My parents moved us every few years for work to make sure we were fine. I moved myself from East Coast to West Coast to escape a bad social life and restarted completely with an unpaid internship, working my way back up. None of it is easy, of course not, I can’t give an answer on where to go or what to do for work but at least try because all this other nonsense people are saying is just not helpful and at worst will land people in trouble
