No, one receives it as "welfare". (and pays it in taxes, no perpetum mobili has yet passed the patent office, just a matter of what one invests in) The real word, untwisting the orwellian twist, might be "badfare"??? Similar to "healthcare" and "sickcare"?? (insuring the healthy for sickcare is obviously a good business, if one can get them to take an insurance?? much more difficult the other way around?? Ilmarinen Not received as neither food nor speeding fine coupons, both in regular cash Helps keeping the black market on food coupons down. Anyway, fines for crimes committed agains the rules of the society is by very old tradition measured in days of fines, payable either by cash after multiplying with the amount of median daily income, or by doing the same days in some more or less social but isolated place, originally as productive work for that same society. But chain-gangs have not been around for a very long time, not very efficient as it takes time to learn the skills, and one should not compete with private professionals with free labor. But for the real question, when a student, obviously living on gvmnt welfare although non-Orwellianicly called state guaranteed, slightly interest subsidized student loans, payment due, proportionally, when the higher income is actually flowing in, the lower limit was something like $30 when income went zero or negative. (cashflow is also important when investing, both past, present and especially future) Obviously this goes back to way before the year of zero, as that story on the widow and her little contribution, but proportionally much greater??
