No more self respecting n good paying jobs after the age of 40?

Must go into vices like in the gambling industries?

Is there no future for employment opportunities in sgp for middle aged papa and mama with kids to feed?

If papa and mama goes to jail, who will feed the kids, if sgp govt says welfare is a dirty word?

Kinana will your church take over this important task?

To prevent them from ending up as juvenile delinquents and ended up in vice industries?

And the problem becomes bigger because it became a buddha cycle because they are trapped and cannot break out?
