> That does not fit together at all. The article is covering a legal decision from 2020 where one woman forced the jobcenter to cover car repair costs. So before, it was not covered. So you just did not have a childhood in the system where stuff like this was covered.
I did, but we did not experience this specific case. I lived in a small town and the Government paid for my public transport costs. They do provide a car as well if you need it for work or for educational purposes. They also pay for transport if you're sick and need to see a doctor. Of course, if you're on welfare with a car without a need for a car, they won't cover anything, which is fair.
> That's not the point. The claim above was that you can comfortable live on Bürgergeld without having to work. Which you usually can't, since it would be taken away (or at least significantly reduced) if you tried that.
I've not said this once.
> So which other social welfare systems than Bürgergeld are you aiming at here?
I'm asking again, are you even German? There are lots of other opportunities which we do provide. We pay for your Apartment with Wohngeld, even if you do work and don't earn enough. We pay for your healthcare costs. We pay for school supplies, trips and education costs for children. In my city, there are a lot of subsidised offers like free access to public pools. You have access to free TV and internet if you're on welfare. You can get a free social carer who will manage your expenses, if you yourself are not able.
I am not trying to be rude, but you're again discussing from a point of severe misinformation and you're lacking crucial knowledge about how our system works. You've been corrected multiple times in this thread for spreading misinformation, like heating costs not being covered by the government.
It's the other way around. You seem to take your information from the AFD or FDP bubble and are thus thoroughly misinformed in how the system works and what effect it has on the people under it. I did not react to your question for my nationality as it's ad hominem. Be assured that I know german politics and social systems perfectly well.
You ignore which limits and obligations are placed under the bürgergeld system, and how stiffling the bureaucracy is. For example, yes, Schuldbedarf is covered, but only up to an amount. Depending on the school that can be not enough, and then be a big problem. You also implied (and even said directly) that aids like Wohngeld and Bürgergeld can be combined, which is wrong.

I just linked you to an article showing that they did not.

It is impossible to read your comments without seeing that this is what you want to say. You also directly agreed with comments saying the same. I quoted you already on that.
