It is thought by many that the administration should offer support to less fortunate individuals. This essay strongly agrees that the government should provide assistance to people who are underprivileged. Firstly, this essay will discuss the importance of aiding people who are deprived of employment or housing and secondly, the different ways of providing support to them.

On the one hand, one of the responsibilities of the government is to assist its people. Unemployment and homelessness are both currently at an all-time high in most countries across the globe, with many people looking for work and if unsuccessful finding themselves without shelter. The government have a responsibility to provide assistance in these matters, offering monetary support and temporary housing for anyone who is in need. For example, a program developed in 2015 by the UK government offers benefits to those who are unemployed, which also includes free accommodation to those who have none.

On the other hand, there are different ways to help the less fortunate. The government should provide free educational programs to those who are unemployed and need new skills in order to find work. Many people who have no job, no income and no housing are often people who desperately need support from the system so that they can survive. For instance, in 2017 London Borough Council rolled out a ‘get back into work’ program, which offered skills-based training to those with no level 2 qualifications. 

In conclusion, the government should provide assistance to underprivileged people but at the same time, these people should also help themselves for it’s a two-way process to make it successful.
