Earlier, a netizen posted a post on the Hong Kong discussion forum with the title “Is the quality of life similar to the original income of 40,000 yuan per month and that of CSSA?”, comparing the differences between the monthly income of 40,000 and receiving CSSA from four aspects of food, clothing, housing and transportation, and finally came to a conclusion. , receiving government Comprehensive Social Security Assistance is better than working part-time. Taking housing as an example, the host pointed out that with a monthly income of 40,000 yuan, there would be financial pressure if he chose to finance the property. The monthly expenditure on renting or paying for a property is about 15,000-20,000, accounting for almost half of the labor force. On the other hand, CSSA recipients have no rental pressure.
The post attracted comments from two groups of netizens. Some even compared their own experiences. The netizen said that during the period of unemployment, he and his family had to live in a 300-square-foot public housing unit. Their daily routine and rest were criticized by their family members, and their diet was changed every day. For meals, most of them patronize cheap frozen meat shops and eat doll noodles. Since I have no income, I have to be frugal in my clothing. “If I don’t buy clothes, pants, shoes and socks once every few years, they will become moldy.” Perhaps because the public housing is located in a remote location, netizens pointed out that in terms of transportation, “it takes two minutes to go back and forth every day, bus + subway.”
On the other hand, when work is open, even if you earn 20,000 yuan a month, you can still rent a 500-square-foot unit by yourself, have three meals a day, and eat at fast food restaurants. In terms of clothing, “I buy shirts and trousers every season, at least all of them are Uniq.” As for transportation, netizens rent units from nearby companies to save time and money by traveling to work. When their monthly income reached 30,000 yuan, netizens claimed that they would buy a home ownership house and a car, and have a place to live after retirement. With extra money, they could also buy a game console for entertainment. Netizens said: “If you don’t wash away 40K, 30K or even 20K are already very different.”
Netizens who think that the quality of life of recipients of CSSA is better said bluntly: “Basically, CSSA recipients live in the same room and have the same food without paying for it. You can wake up naturally after training. If you exercise regularly, you will live longer.” You can win half your life, and you can win 80% of your life if you have CSSA.” “Look at how many beautiful cars there are in the public housing parking lot.” “In the interest rate hike cycle, mortgage payments continue to rise, but there is no increase in wages or only an increase. a little.”
Some netizens also added that many people receiving CSSA work as casual workers with daily wages and cash settlements. They have little financial pressure but still have an income. “They travel more than you do.” Some people also pointed out that there is no need to save money for CSSA, and there is no need to worry about moving from public housing due to rent increases. “Conclusion: Punishing hard-working people.”
The other group of netizens believe that “you have hands and feet and don’t do anything.” In addition to comparing the material aspect, they also consider mental health. “If you don’t work again, you will easily become useless and depressed.” “The place where you live is different.” The quality of the neighbors is very different.” Some people also countered: “In fact, riding in a wheelchair is faster than walking, especially an electric wheelchair… When do you lame your own foot? You can still collect disability benefits.”
Some netizens criticized the public housing system for problems, saying, “Hong Kong’s public housing policy: punishes those who don’t have public housing,” “Support the government’s reduction of CSSA,” and “It’s reasonable for children who misbehave to eat sweets.”
