Hello, I understand that poor people need money and jobs, but why do they need social services as well?

Glad you find it interesting.

It sounds like an interesting debate. I definitely will learn more about it. Thank you!

Interesting, you remind me of a great debate about whether the poor need social work. In this debate, politicians thought poor people’s need for social services could be fulfilled by the income system. However, the key point of providing social service to the poor is providing help for individuals when they have no one else to turn to. As long as the policies cannot cover every single person, the blank space should be filled by the social worker.
