It might be a net loss to the economy, true.

But to me it’s about you trying to contribute.

I don’t want to give my hard earned tax money to some lazy dude not working and smoking weed all day.

But if said guy worked as many hours as I did, just not profitably but through a sponsored job, I’d be fine with sponsoring him with my money.

Because he’s still contributing. He is still adding value, even if not as much as somebody else could.
