Meanwhile ODSP has not seen a meaningful increase since I don't know how many years ago but more than five. Your untreated schizophrenic was probably traumatized by previous hospitalizations and stigmatization from medical professionals and is now trying to get by on about 13k a year.

They don't want to forget about us. They want to punish us. They're like Mother Teresa but without the self delusion. They hate the poor and they cannot even conceal it, do not even know to conceal it. It so pervasive in society that I don't even think there is a word for hatred of the poor, but we all know it exists and warps public policy.
