Positive functions of the undeserving poor
This short story have made great points on both the poverty today and the judgmental stereotypes that we have today in society. Poor people and those who are on the welfare are all judged as if they were bad people just because they are were they are. But they shouldn’t be judge or denied any type of help because like they mention in this story the unemployment rate is ridiculous. In this story he speaks about the five sets of functions and then the 13 specific functions. He explains how each have these functions have there pros and its cons. I think he have made some valid points no one should be judge because of what they are For instance, the drug user, those who want to succeed and those who cant even find a job even if they wanted to because if your a no experience person or because of your history they will deny you any opportunity in becoming anything or even being able to get a job. Poverty has a lot to do with it because those who have nothing at all really don’t have a choice for example, those who try to stay out of trouble but cant because no one is really giving them a helping hand. So maybe it all have to do with those who surround them and criticize them instead of helping it all make a different and they aren’t all the same just because they are what they are some don’t ask to be put in that difficult situation.
