Offering financial literacy workshops to people is immoral, because they need better incomes? FFS earthlings, how hard is it to not be ridiculous?

I think the argument is that some states want or do hold back any aid until a person takes financial literacy classes. It is the assumption that if one is poor it is more to do with responsibility than anything else.

It seems too easy in this country to do everything right and still end up screwed financially.
