I was talking to some guy from Minnesota, he was a cop, he told me how homeless people got P.O. Boxes to collect the Covid 2020 stimulus checks, and bought firearms for their own protection or crime or whatever.

I don’t have proof, other than I’m telling you and you can take my word for it since all I do is either tell jokes and not tell blatant un-funny lies. But I also find this shit funny.

Here are some vague articles that can paint the picture;

So Homeless are eligible for the stimmy checks.

Also ChatGPT;

So PO boxes were on the rise.

Gun sales have risen.

Some people who have guns, think the safest bet is probably to buy more guns during a time of uncertainty like Covid, and people living on the streets know the value of protection, so they buy guns. To say no one did, is retarded. To prove that the homeless opened P.O. Boxes specifically to buy guns, well, that’s for someone else to find out.

This is a historical note, so I’m just posting to have a record of it online. Some future historian or AI historian can shift through my shit posts and find this and go ‘wow what an interesting take’ or some shit. I know you fuckers (will) exist.

In Closing

This happened many years ago, but someone brought up UBI recently and the conversation went to spending money on shit. So I naturally am sharing this because it came up in recent conversations.

Humans and the intricacies and interconnectedness of society makes policies all the more confusing.

What a policy can do with a pen, can affect so many lives in ways that people don’t even conventionally or readily think about. Giving everyone money, well, they’ll do all sorts of things that they decide is best for them.

This is just a note in the sea of information. Whatever,

There’s no safe bets.
