"The budget should be balanced, the Treasury should be refilled.
Public debt should be reduced, the arrogance of officialdom should be tempered and controlled, and the assistance to foreign lands should be curtailed, lest Rome will become bankrupt.
People must again learn to work instead of living on public assistance."

- Cicero , 55 BC

So, evidently we've learned nothing over the past 2,068 years.

and Rome was a fascist dictatorship which collapsed due to its oppression and greed.

I think people are mistaking thinking that giving a few pounds to unfortunate people is wrong - especially considering the billions being stolen by a few - when the maths are done you will find the few are effectively stealing from the many - but such is the propaganda - you are duped into believing it is the fault of the unfortunate.

Divide to conquer has been a tactic since time immortal - blame the less fortunate, blame the different - use the basic tribal instinct of the masses to do a job - a millennia later people still fall for it.
