Thank you. People really do punch down a lot. I get the impression most people choose to believe that if they work hard, this (disability, unemployment, poverty, etc) can never happen to them, as a kind of defence mechanism because deep down they're worried it might happen to them. But this of course means that people who do suffer these things deserve them, because they didn't try hard enough. So they treat less fortunate people badly. It's the same way they choose to believe that there is so much help out there, like benefits being easy to obtain and food banks being easy to access, when the reality is very different. Poor people have it easy, you can get anything you need for free, right? They choose to believe this because they want to have a good opinion of themselves and if they admitted that they choose to keep voting for parties who are hard on the poor (slashing benefits, closing down food banks etc) they'd have to admit that they're a selfish person who doesn't care about others.
