My mom says that people who don't have "value" don't deserve to live and that "depression" is just an excuse for laziness. What's is your rebuttal for it? (sh.itjust.works)

The thing is... depends on how you tally up the assets... if you liquidated all of it, it probably adds up to a million... (maybe, not sure)

But naw, its so tough out there... I can't afford to burn bridges... ICE is randomly picking up people on the street, being homeless and without access to money (like legal fees, in case they try to deport me or something) and without family to help is a baaad idea.

    I hear ya.

    The fundamental problem is that she doesn't decide who society thinks has value. If people without value should die, one day society might decide she has no value. Then what?

    It's best to have a world where everyone is treated decently, because you never know where you'll end up.
