4 hours ago I took a break. There are kids who don't do anything even among young people and are like "if there's nothing to do, just get basic living assistance" lol the state of this country is really bleak. Comment 4 hours ago Young people won't get it unless they're disabled or something, what are you talking about. Comment 3 hours ago Surprisingly you just apply and they give it to you if you meet the conditions. Comment 2 hours ago You only get it if you have no income at the level of being disabled, so if you meet the conditions they'll give it to you lol. Comment 1 hour ago The conditions are strict so that's why people say that lmao.

You get in if you have a top-tier Suneung score and tuition money, no cap ㄷㄷ

Posting it because it's funny. If you want to complain but think you need my permission, then don't.

Lmaooo so you're only eligible if you literally can't earn money on your own? ㅋㅋㅋㅋ Apply a million times and they won't help regular people without issues

🦊

Bruh the lottery gives out 1 billion won just for matching numbers? I'm going to collect lmao

lmaooo this has to be clickbait, SNU is literally one of the hardest unis in Asia to get into

Common sense: our welfare budget is incredibly low compared to OECD. You really think we'll provide that level of welfare? This country has labor ministry civil servants pulling unpaid all-nighters.

🐰

Total social welfare spending is 337 trillion won, which is 15% of GDP—and that's similar to Switzerland's rate. Colombia spends about the same as us too. If we just look at GDP ratio, France spends 30%, double ours, so France is the weird one. OECD ranks us 29th out of 38 countries in welfare spending, and the top countries are European welfare states—but we're not exactly rolling in money like Europe, right? Plus Europe's budgets are squeezed out while they free-ride on defense and can't even manufacture shells. And when you compare countries with high welfare spending ratios to countries with high national debt, you see it's basically just borrowing sprees. We shouldn't aim for unlimited welfare states—we need policies based on free-market economics, not just 'give more, give more' ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

🐰

You're right, we ARE in the lower ranks among OECD members. That 29th ranking was from the 2010s when there were only 29-30 OECD members. As of 2022, we're 34th out of 38 countries—we've always been near the bottom. We just went up recently. Welfare spending being lower than OECD average <<that's just straight facts.

wait this can't be real 😭 if SNU is that easy then why did i stress so hard getting into my state school

Gen Z took a break lol. Heard some people have this victim complex that young people get tons of government support—guess this is actually one of those people

🦊

Yoon Seong-bin got roasted for one comment, but honestly there's a ton of people like him ㅋㅋ Basic income recipients? Just apply if you qualify, dummy. Rich? Make money. Fat? Lose weight. No muscles? Build them. Want Seoul National U? Study harder.

🐰

Real talk ㅋㅋ Just do floo? and you're in

🦊

Permission denied

🦊

🦊

It's funny as hell—you need money to buy stuff, a bed to sleep in a bed, to get home from military you gotta be discharged. That whole vibe, man, I can't explain it

🐰
