No words. This is like paying criminals not to commit crime.
When you subsidize an activity, you get more of it.

Wouldn’t it cost less to neuter them?

And you have to know that taxpayer money is seeping in here.

I say ship them all to Attu Island in the Aleutians. Leave them there forever.
Air drop boxes of Raman noodles every now and then.

I don’t have any of that and don’t need the medication. Can I just have the money and they keep the drugs?

If you have to pay them to stay alive, wouldn’t they just blow that money on Goth clothes, black hair dye, and tattoos?

Well - if the amount of money spent is irrelevant and if the number of lives saved is the objective then why not pay diabetics to take their medicines; there are certainly more diabetics who could die if they don’t take their meds, than there are folks with HIV.
Of course in all of it you can ignore the debt government is in at all levels. /sarc

Air drop boxes of Raman noodles...
They might tend to scatter.
To: fwdude
what if... we stop encouraging men to stick their peckers into other mens hairly butt holes?
And if they continue to do so, what if... we quarantine them for the rest of their lives to protect the rest of society from their stupidity!

For one thing, if the HIV kills ‘em, they shouldn’t get paid for the full year.

If the prospect of STAYING ALIVE isn’t enough of an incentive for AIDS patients to take their meds, I doubt that money will do it.

HIV meds ($$$$) are heavily subsidized as is.
Article's intent is just to give fags more subsidization ideally for controlled substances consumed while participating in orgies or whatever Buttigieg and "wife" engages in (Wife refers to whoever is the catcher at the time).

Another way to look at it is FM = MP.

I always think of the anti-drug campaign commercials with Mercury Morris. Apparently, he spent some time in prison in his post-NFL years (for drug trafficking), and he was selected to do some war on drugs ads after he was released. It struck me how odd it was to have someone who indulged and distributed illegal drugs telling the rest of us what to do. Why not recruit someone who has never contributed to the problem in the first place?
